St Bernadette's Catholic Primary School
Milton Keynes, MK10 9PH · Milton Keynes · primary school
28th of 58 primary schools in Milton Keynes we can score, 90 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 — 5.5/10 against 4,258 of them, against 5.8/10 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 | 61.0 · 41 | 40% | 1.67 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 34% | 1.78 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 15.0 · 84 | 25% | 2.11 |
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, 61.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 15.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2022. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (5.5 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.8 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Junior Park Rangers or the Spirits of St Bernadette club, and Year 6 students visit Gulliver's. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 419 pupils in a capacity of 450, leaving 31 spare places. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are below the national median in core subjects? What specific activities do the Junior Park Rangers and Spirits of St Bernadette clubs involve? How does the school manage the transition for Year 6 pupils before their trip to Gulliver's?
