Our Lady's Catholic Primary School

Alcester, B49 6AG · Warwickshire · primary school

Mixed Primary Roman Catholic
7.8/10 Above average

11th of 162 primary schools in Warwickshire we can score, 197 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 8.9/10 against 2,395 of them, against 7.8/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 76.0 · 80 62% 4.91
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 12.0 · 74 38% 2.84

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 76.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. A further 12.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (8.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.8 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join a Gardening Club and play football, archery, and BikeAbility. Trips include visits to Legoland Discovery Centre, a Buddhist Temple, Parliament, and the Heart of England Forest. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 94 pupils in a capacity of 105 places, leaving 11 spare places. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What specific activities take place during the after-school club? How does the curriculum adapt for the 12.0% of pupils who reach the higher standard?
