Ramsgate Arts Primary School

Ramsgate, CT12 6PP · Kent · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
6.8/10 Above average

116th of 425 primary schools in Kent we can score, 460 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 — 8.8/10 against 2,357 of them, against 7.6/10 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 73.0 · 73 40% 2.93

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, 73.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 14.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in November 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (8.8 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.6 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils attend a Creative After School Club, participate in Sports day and The Viking Games, and engage in art competitions and trips to Frameless and Take One Picture. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.

Getting in. The school has 412 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 8 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths? What specific activities are included in the Creative After School Club? How does the school manage the competitive nature of admissions with only 8 places remaining?
