St Barnabas CofE Primary School
Worcester, WR3 8NZ · Worcestershire · primary school
47th of 113 primary schools in Worcestershire we can score, 180 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 — 5.7/10 against 2,991 of them, against 5.2/10 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 | 59.0 · 37 | 62% | 2.26 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 13.0 · 78 | 38% | 2.98 |
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, 59.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 13.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (5.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.2 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils play football, hockey, rounders, netball, tag rugby, tennis, and cricket. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 380 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 40 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who fall below the expected standard in maths? What specific activities take place during the after-school club? How does the school manage the transition for children arriving without a morning routine?
