Rood End Primary School
Oldbury, B68 8SQ · Sandwell · primary school
80th of 84 primary schools in Sandwell we can score, 93 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 — 1.6/10 against 1,491 of them, against 1.6/10 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 | 50.0 · 19 | 62% | 1.17 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 38% | 0.40 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 50.0% 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. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (1.6 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. A breakfast club is available for pupils.
Getting in. The school has 428 pupils in a capacity of 488 places, leaving 60 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who have not reached the expected standard in maths? What provisions are available for children who need care after the school day ends? How does the school maintain engagement for the 0.0% of pupils who reached the higher standard?
