Roseacre Junior School
Maidstone, ME14 4BL · Kent · primary school
108th 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 the 2,183 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.4/10 among them, against 7.9/10 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 | 73.0 · 73 | 40% | 2.93 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 17.0 · 87 | 25% | 2.18 |
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%. The higher standard was reached by 17.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.4 out of 10 among them, against 7.9 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the School Council, play football, athletics, tri-golf, cricket, or archery, and participate in performing arts, musical theatre, dance, or choir. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 424 pupils in a building with 396 places, meaning it is over capacity by 28. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the high demand for places given it is currently over capacity? What support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard in core subjects? How are parents kept informed about the school’s performance relative to similar-intake schools?
