The Priors School
Southam, CV47 7RR · Warwickshire · primary school
51st of 162 primary schools in Warwickshire we can score, 197 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 2,905 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.9/10 among them, against 6.0/10 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 | 82.0 · 90 | 40% | 3.62 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 82.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. However, 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2025. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.9 out of 10 among them, against 6.0 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils attend a residential visit to Whitemoor Lakes and can join an after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 101 pupils in a capacity of 70, meaning it is over capacity by 31. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the significant overcapacity with 31 extra pupils? What support is available for the 0.0% of pupils who did not reach the higher standard? How does the after-school club operate given the lack of a breakfast club?
