Mixed Primary Church of England
2.7/10 Below average

196th of 203 primary schools in Surrey we can score, 296 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 — 2.7/10 against 2,336 of them, against 2.7/10 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.

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 Jude's Church of England Junior School

Inspection report dated 28 October 2024

Overview

The report describes a school where pupils are happy and form a "welcoming community" with staff. Leaders have maintained high expectations for academic achievement and personal development, resulting in "Good" ratings across all key judgement areas. The school has successfully improved teaching standards, particularly in mathematics, while fostering strong behaviour and attendance.

Strengths

  • The curriculum is "well-planned" with a strong emphasis on reading, ensuring pupils read "challenging texts" and catch up if they need extra support.
  • Mathematical understanding is "building effectively" following targeted staff training, addressing previously lower standards.
  • Behaviour is "typically civilised," with pupils being respectful and cooperative; staff manage routines consistently and have reduced the need for suspensions.
  • Leaders form a "cohesive team" that communicates well with parents and ensures staff have a "reasonable workload."
  • Pupils benefit from a "well-planned" personal, social, health and economic education programme and enjoy many enrichment opportunities.

Areas to improve

  • Teachers should routinely check the engagement of pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) during activities to ensure they stay on task.
  • Staff need to refine planning for mixed-age classes so tasks are sufficiently adapted to build knowledge securely for pupils with "widely varying prior knowledge."

Safeguarding

The report states that "the arrangements for safeguarding are effective."
