Check the area around this school
159th of 337 primary schools in Hertfordshire we can score, 398 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 6.1/10 against 3,131 of them, against 5.7/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 | 62.0 · 44 | 40% | 1.74 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 13.0 · 78 | 25% | 1.94 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Tudor Primary School
Overview
Tudor Primary School continues to be a good school, characterised by a culture of aspiration where pupils are enthusiastic about learning and feel safe. Leaders have established a shared, ambitious vision for the curriculum that inspires pupils and enables them to achieve well, supported by confident subject leaders and strong relationships rooted in mutual respect.
Strengths
- Pupils are proud of their school community, behave well, and demonstrate tolerance and understanding of difference.
- The bespoke curriculum breaks complex ideas into manageable chunks, helping pupils ‘know more and remember more’.
- Early reading skills are taught consistently through phonics, with a strong promotion of a love of reading across all year groups.
- Provision for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is high quality, ensuring they access the full curriculum.
- Staff feel valued, with leaders conscious of workload and supporting well-being, while governors effectively oversee continuous improvement.
Areas to improve
- In a small number of subjects, the implementation of curriculum plans is ‘still to be refined and embedded securely’, meaning pupils’ work does not yet fully reflect the ambitious intent.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with leaders maintaining meticulous record-keeping and establishing a ‘culture of vigilance’ where all staff know what to do if concerned about a pupil.
