The Anthony Roper Primary School
Dartford, DA4 0AA · Kent · primary school
295th of 425 primary schools in Kent we can score, 460 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 4,352 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.9/10 among them, against 3.2/10 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 | 51.0 · 21 | 40% | 0.84 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 7.0 · 51 | 25% | 1.27 |
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, 51.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in December 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.9 out of 10 among them, against 3.2 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils visit Brandshatch, the Natural History Museum, Greenwich Maritime Museum, and Crayford Mosque, and attend the Pantomine, Young Shakespeare, and workshops at Penshurst Place. There is no breakfast or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 258 pupils in a building with 315 places, leaving 57 spare spots. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who miss the expected standard in maths? What provisions exist for children arriving late or leaving early due to the lack of wraparound care? How does the curriculum prepare students for the specific trips listed?
