Check the area around this school
23rd of 215 primary schools in Leicestershire we can score, 231 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 — 9.1/10 against 4,217 of them, against 8.9/10 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 | 100.0 · 100 | 40% | 3.99 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 11.0 · 71 | 25% | 1.77 |
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 Peter's Church of England Primary School Wymondham
Overview
St Peter’s Church of England Primary School Wymondham has taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at its previous inspection. The report describes a small, welcoming community where pupils behave extremely well and feel safe, valued, and proud of their school. Leaders have developed the curriculum with careful consideration, prioritising reading and vocabulary, though inconsistencies in implementation remain.
Strengths
- Pupils demonstrate "kindness, peace, hope, forgiveness, helpfulness and respect," creating an atmosphere of care and mutual respect.
- Reading is prioritised, with early years children quickly accessing books matched to their phonics knowledge and older pupils discussing texts confidently.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are supported by tailored resources and adults who know them well, allowing them to learn the curriculum effectively.
- Staff establish positive relationships with pupils and families, and governors consider staff well-being and workload carefully.
- Pupils attend school well and have developed positive, trusting relationships with staff within a calm environment.
Areas to improve
- The school should ensure staff follow agreed strategies for curriculum implementation so that pupils’ misconceptions are addressed and learning deepens consistently.
- The school should embed new aspects of the personal development offer so pupils gain an age-appropriate understanding of protected characteristics and access diverse clubs to develop their talents.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
