134th of 215 primary schools in Leicestershire we can score, 231 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 4,208 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.2/10 among them, against 3.3/10 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 | 63.0 · 46 | 40% | 1.85 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Leaders are determined that all pupils will achieve highly, with a strong focus on reviewing and improving teaching practices.
Strengths

- In mathematics, pupils build on previous learning and are given opportunities to correct mistakes, ensuring they understand basics like tens and ones.

Areas to improve
