Check the area around this school
31st of 56 primary schools in North Somerset we can score, 64 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 4,277 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.8/10 among them, against 4.6/10 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 | 67.0 · 57 | 62% | 3.50 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 3.0 · 29 | 38% | 1.13 |
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 Georges Church School
Overview
Pupils enjoy attending this “friendly, welcoming school” where they feel safe and valued. The new leadership team has brought stability, establishing a clear curriculum vision and high expectations that most pupils meet. Inspectors found that staff promote positive behaviour and that pupils are well prepared for life in modern Britain.
Strengths
- Pupils demonstrate “positive attitudes” and work hard, achieving well in most subjects within a “calm and purposeful atmosphere”.
- Reading is a strong priority; children develop a “love of stories” early on, and those who fall behind receive effective support to catch up.
- Staff in mathematics model ideas effectively, ensuring pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities learn the curriculum “as well as their peers”.
- The school tracks attendance rigorously and works closely with parents, resulting in most pupils attending regularly.
- Pupils develop a “mature understanding” of relationships and tolerance, engaging in charity work and leadership roles like house captains.
Areas to improve
- In some subjects, assessment is not used sufficiently well to check if pupils have retained knowledge, leading to gaps in their learning over time.
- The impact of the curriculum is not evaluated effectively in all areas, preventing the school from fully understanding how well pupils build knowledge.
Safeguarding
The report states that “the arrangements for safeguarding are effective.”
