Oatlands Community Junior School
Harrogate, HG2 8QP · North Yorkshire · primary school
25th of 252 primary schools in North Yorkshire we can score, 290 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to the 2,385 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.8/10 among them, against 7.4/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 77.0 · 82 | 62% | 5.04 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 9.0 · 61 | 38% | 2.36 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 77.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 9.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.8 out of 10 among them, against 7.4 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs for chess, ukulele, choir, gymnastics, and singing. Sports include football, netball, basketball, and badminton, while arts cover guitar, piano, strings, voice, and brass. Trips go to Mount Cook and Robinwood. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 361 pupils in a capacity of 360 places, meaning it is over capacity by 1. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the waitlist given it is currently over capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the expected standard? How does the after-school club operate for families without access to a breakfast club?
