10th of 215 primary schools in Leicestershire we can score, 231 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 — 10.0/10 against 4,279 of them, against 9.9/10 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 | 100.0 · 100 | 40% | 3.99 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 33.0 · 99 | 25% | 2.47 |
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 Tugby Church of England Primary School
Overview
This ungraded inspection confirms that Tugby Church of England Primary School has “taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection.” The school is described as “very well-led,” providing a “calm learning environment” where pupils are “polite and friendly” and feel “happy and safe.”
Strengths
- Pupils demonstrate “exceptional” behaviour and achieve well across the curriculum, developing a “positive mindset.”
- The curriculum is “ambitious” and builds logically, with teachers helping pupils “make connections between new and prior learning.”
- Reading is a priority, with staff trained to teach phonics effectively, enabling pupils to become “confident and fluent readers.”
- Mathematics teaching uses small steps to close knowledge gaps, ensuring pupils are “confident in the tasks they undertake.”
- Support for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is a strength, with quick identification of needs and high parental confidence.
Areas to improve
- The school’s approach to teaching British values is “not fully developed,” meaning some pupils lack an “age-appropriate depth of understanding.” The school should ensure all pupils discuss and deepen their understanding of these values.
Safeguarding
