Senacre Wood Primary School
Maidstone, ME15 8QQ · Kent · primary school
239th 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 — 6.1/10 against 1,708 of them, against 4.8/10 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% | 1.86 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 7.0 · 51 | 25% | 1.27 |
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, 63% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 7% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2025. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (6.1 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.8 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Funky Feet Dance Club. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.
Getting in. There are 210 pupils in a school with 210 places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With the school at full capacity, how does the admissions process handle new applications if a place becomes available? How does the breakfast club support children who arrive early? What specific support is available for pupils who are not yet meeting the expected standard in maths?
