39th of 69 primary schools in Bromley we can score, 76 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 3,930 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.8/10 among them, against 6.8/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 69.0 · 63 | 40% | 2.51 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 13.0 · 78 | 25% | 1.94 |
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 Raglan Primary School
Overview
Raglan Primary School continues to be a good school, providing a calm atmosphere where pupils behave well and demonstrate enthusiasm for learning. Leaders maintain high aspirations for all pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, ensuring they are well supported and kept safe.
Strengths
- Pupils achieve highly in reading, writing, and mathematics, supported by rigorous phonics teaching and a clear early years curriculum.
- Staff respond astutely to learning difficulties, using well-considered strategies to help pupils meet curriculum goals.
- Leaders foster character development, with older pupils taking on leadership roles such as house captains and eco-council members.
- Pupils with SEND receive tailored therapeutic support and access the same opportunities as their peers, including clubs and leadership roles.
- The governing body and trust work closely with senior leaders to support staff well-being and professional development.
Areas to improve
- In some foundation subjects, the curriculum approach is not as clearly defined, meaning pupils do not always learn content as securely.
- Leaders should agree explicit expectations for learning in these subjects and support teachers to increase their expertise in delivering the agreed curriculum.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with staff receiving thorough training and working together to identify and support pupils at risk.
