53rd of 82 primary schools in South Gloucestershire 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.
Narrow the comparison to the 4,296 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.4/10 among them, against 2.5/10 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 | 58.0 · 35 | 40% | 1.39 |
| 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.

What Ofsted said about St Anne's Church of England Primary School
Overview
This ungraded inspection confirms that St Anne’s Church of England Primary School has “taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection.” The school is described as “welcoming,” with “caring relationships” between pupils and staff that contribute to a safe and valued environment. Leaders have successfully revised the curriculum to ensure pupils learn more in each subject, supported by high expectations for behaviour and achievement.
Strengths
- The “enquiry-led” curriculum is “ambitious and engaging,” enabling pupils to “build on and connect what they already know.”
- Staff develop pupils’ oracy expertly, encouraging them to explain their thinking using phrases such as “I disagree because…”
- The school acts quickly on weaknesses, such as strengthening early reading after a dip in phonics outcomes, ensuring children “confidently master new sounds.”
- Attendance has improved markedly, with the school working closely with parents to reduce persistent absence.
- Governors provide “good oversight” of the school’s work, checking the impact of leaders’ actions.
Areas to improve
- The school should ensure outcomes improve for disadvantaged pupils, who currently “do not achieve as well as they could” in core subjects.
- Staff must provide regular opportunities for pupils to apply their phonics knowledge in writing, as insufficient practice currently “slows the progress some pupils make.”
Safeguarding
The report states that “the arrangements for safeguarding are effective.”
