Stow Heath Primary School
Willenhall, WV13 3TT · Wolverhampton · primary school
16th of 62 primary schools in Wolverhampton we can score, 72 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 9.2/10 against 1,228 of them, against 7.9/10 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
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 77.0 · 82 | 40% | 3.28 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 12.0 · 74 | 25% | 1.85 |
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, 77.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 12.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.2 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.9 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Forest School & Gardening, Arts and Crafts, Mindfulness Art, and Construction clubs. Sports include football, tri-golf, multi-skills, athletics, netball, and cross country running. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 475 pupils in a building with 420 places, meaning it is over capacity by 55. This means places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 55 more pupils than its stated capacity? What support is available for pupils who do not attend the after-school club? How does the Forest School curriculum integrate with the core maths and English lessons?
