Rawmarsh Thorogate Junior and Infant School

Rotherham, S62 7HS · Rotherham · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
2.5/10 Below average

69th of 84 primary schools in Rotherham we can score, 96 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 4,158 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.4/10 among them, against 1.1/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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, 43.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in March 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.4 out of 10 among them, against 1.1 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Pops Ranger Kids and Get Active clubs. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

Getting in. There are 212 pupils in a school with 210 places, meaning it is over capacity by 2. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. With results below the national median, how does the school support pupils who are not reaching expected standards? Since the school is over capacity, what is the current waiting list status for new admissions? How does the curriculum balance the Pops Ranger Kids and Get Active clubs with core academic learning?
