Check the area around this school
90th of 161 primary schools in Warwickshire we can score, 196 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 3.4/10 against 3,510 of them, against 3.8/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 | 53.0 · 24 | 40% | 0.96 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 9.0 · 61 | 25% | 1.54 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Quinton Primary School
Overview
Quinton Primary School continues to be a good school where pupils are "well cared for" and enjoy a "rich and exciting curriculum." Leaders have a clear vision to prepare pupils for their role in the community, supported by high staff expectations and a strong sense of community.
Strengths
- Staff "go beyond what it expected to support" pupils, fostering a positive environment where children work "collaboratively and independently."
- The curriculum is "engaging and ambitious," with well-planned mathematics and early reading programmes that help pupils build knowledge and read with "confidence and fluency."
- Pupils demonstrate high standards of behaviour, actively following the code of conduct to "Be ready, be respectful, be safe," and are generally polite and respectful.
- Extra-curricular opportunities, including music and sports, allow pupils to develop talents, with the school playing a central role in local community events.
Areas to improve
- Leaders must ensure a small number of pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive the specific support required to read fluently and understand texts.
- In some subjects, such as history, work focuses too much on writing skills rather than subject content, hindering pupils' ability to recall key knowledge; leaders should ensure tasks support intended curriculum delivery.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with leaders making appropriate staff checks, ensuring thorough training, and responding quickly to concerns while working closely with agencies to keep children safe.
