Steep Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School

Petersfield, GU32 2DE · Hampshire · primary school

Mixed Primary Church of England
6.8/10 Above average

59th 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 the 2,050 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.8/10 among them, against 6.8/10 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
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 64.0 · 49 62% 3.04
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 29.0 · 98 38% 3.76

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, 64.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, matching the national median of 64%. 29.0% achieved the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.8 out of 10 among them, against 6.8 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join French Club, Orchestra, coding, and times table rock stars, alongside outdoor games, mindful colouring, and creative craft. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.

Getting in. The school has 102 pupils in a capacity of 105, leaving 3 spare places. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are not yet meeting the expected standard in maths? What specific activities take place during the breakfast and after-school clubs? How does the school manage the transition for new families given the limited number of available places?
