Valley Invicta Primary School At Kings Hill

West Malling, ME19 4AL · Kent · primary school

Mixed Primary
9.8/10 Well above average

1st 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.

Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 9.9/10 against 4,352 of them, against 9.8/10 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
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 90.0 · 98 62% 6.00
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 31.0 · 98 38% 3.78

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, 90.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 31.0% reached the higher standard. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (9.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.8 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs for karate, drum lessons, Lego, chess, yoga, puzzle & riddles, sketching, and choir. Sports include tennis, basketball, netball, and football. Trips go to Bowles outdoor activity centre. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 225 pupils in a building with 210 places, meaning it is over capacity by 15. Consequently, places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine for children who arrive before the official start time, given there is no breakfast club? What are the specific entry requirements for the competitive places, and how are they allocated? How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard in their core subjects?
