Stanton-in-Peak CofE Primary School
Matlock, DE4 2LX · Derbyshire · primary school
13th of 263 primary schools in Derbyshire we can score, 353 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 — 7.4/10 against 4,250 of them, against 7.3/10 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 | 67.0 · 57 | 40% | 2.28 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 33.0 · 99 | 25% | 2.47 |
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, 67.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 33.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in June 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 (7.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.3 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in football, netball, and athletics, alongside craft and circus skills. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 68 pupils in a capacity of 70 places, leaving 2 spare spots. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With only 2 places remaining, how does the school manage the waiting list if a spot opens up mid-year? Since there is no breakfast club, what are the earliest drop-off times for parents who need early morning care? How does the school support pupils in developing their craft and circus skills beyond the core curriculum?
