56th of 217 primary schools in Staffordshire we can score, 309 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

How this is worked out
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 69.0 · 63 40% 2.51
Ofsted 52 35% 1.81
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 19.0 · 90 25% 2.26

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. The school was rated Good by Ofsted in 2023. In 2024/25, 69.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. A further 19.0% reached the higher standard.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in Boccia, choir, Young Voices, and The Rotary children's concert. Trips include visits to Borth, Twycross Zoo, and a Year 6 bowling trip.

Getting in. The school has 113 pupils in a capacity of 120 places, leaving 7 spare spots. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What are the specific arrangements for supervision during lunchtimes, given there is no breakfast or after-school club? How does the curriculum prepare children for the transition to secondary school?
