St Joseph's Catholic Primary School
Aldershot, GU11 3DD · Hampshire · primary school
3rd 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.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 9.6/10 against 3,748 of them, against 9.6/10 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 | 88.0 · 96 | 40% | 3.85 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 26.0 · 96 | 25% | 2.41 |
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, 88.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 26.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in April 2024. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (9.6 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in sports day, school competitions, Quidditch, and Sports Leaders. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 489 pupils in a building with 476 places, meaning it is over capacity by 13. Places are competitive because the school is over its stated capacity.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily flow of 13 extra pupils beyond its physical capacity? What specific support is offered to children who arrive without a breakfast club? How does the Quidditch club fit into the broader sports schedule alongside standard competitions?
