Check the area around this school
21st of 161 primary schools in Warwickshire we can score, 196 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 — 7.6/10 against 3,893 of them, against 7.2/10 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 | 73.0 · 73 | 62% | 4.51 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 11.0 · 71 | 38% | 2.72 |
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 Weddington Primary School
Overview
Weddington Primary School is described as a place where pupils attend with "enthusiasm and pride," benefiting from "warm and nurturing relationships" with staff. The school delivers an "ambitious, broad and balanced curriculum" supported by leaders who are "mindful of their workload and well-being." While the report assigns 'Good' ratings across all key judgement areas, it highlights specific inconsistencies in how assessment data is used to deepen pupil understanding in certain subjects.
Strengths
- Pupils feel "safe and happy" and access a "wide range of extra-curricular clubs" that develop their talents and community awareness.
- Staff possess "strong subject knowledge" and deliver curriculum content "with authority," ensuring pupils, including those with SEND, meet high expectations.
- Reading is prioritised effectively, with children in Reception quickly learning phonics and pupils enjoying a "rich range of literature."
- Behaviour management is "thorough," creating a "calm and purposeful learning environment" guided by the school’s values.
- The governing body provides "effective support and challenge," maintaining an accurate view of the school’s progress.
Areas to improve
- Assessment systems in some foundation subjects are not fully developed, meaning information is not used effectively to "address gaps in pupils’ knowledge."
- In a small number of subjects, pupils do not always connect new knowledge to previous learning, limiting their ability to "deepen their understanding."
Safeguarding
The report states that "the arrangements for safeguarding are effective."
