Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
7.3/10 Above average

47th of 300 primary schools in Hampshire we can score, 420 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 — 8.8/10 against 4,265 of them, against 8.5/10 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.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 81.0 · 89 40% 3.57

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Weeke Primary School overview

How it's doing

The higher standard was reached by 13.0% of pupils, against a national median of 7%. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2024. 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 (8.8 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.5 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom

Pupils can join Art Club, the Eco Team, and Music Lessons, or take part in Football, Dance, and Swimming. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

What Ofsted said about Weeke Primary School

Inspection report dated 10 September 2024

Overview

Weeke Primary School remains a ‘good’ school following this ungraded inspection, with evidence suggesting it could achieve an ‘outstanding’ grade if a full graded inspection were conducted. Pupils ‘flourish’ in an environment characterised by ‘irresistible learning’, strong relationships, and a deep ethos of inclusion that supports all learners, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities.

Strengths

  • Pupils achieve very well, particularly in reading and mathematics, supported by a ‘highly ambitious curriculum’ and ‘consistently high standard’ phonics teaching.
  • The school is ‘truly inclusive’, with staff swiftly identifying needs and providing effective support for disadvantaged pupils and those with SEND.
  • Behaviour is described as ‘very strong’, with pupils being ‘friendly and polite’ and showing ‘overwhelmingly excellent attitudes to their learning’.
  • Governors are ‘highly effective’ in holding the school to account, while staff feel valued and are well-trained to support pupil learning.
  • Personal development is ‘exceptional’, with a wide range of experiences beyond the academic curriculum, such as digital photography and architecture workshops.

Areas to improve
