St John's, Gosport Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School
Gosport, PO12 4JH · Hampshire · primary school
256th of 301 primary schools in Hampshire we can score, 423 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 — 5.3/10 against 1,925 of them, against 4.4/10 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 | 70.0 · 65 | 40% | 2.62 |
| Ofsted | 3 | 35% | 0.11 |
| 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.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 70.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in October 2024.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils attend a residential trip to Wick Court and visit the Weald and Downlands Museum and Search Museum. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 386 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 34 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What specific improvements have been made since the 2024 inspection? How do the breakfast and after-school clubs integrate with the main curriculum?
