Birmingham, B32 2NG · Birmingham · primary school
243rd of 259 primary schools in Birmingham we can score, 293 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 1.4/10 against 132 of them, against 0.6/10 nationally. 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 | 32.0 · 4 | 40% | 0.14 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
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, 32.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. No pupils reached the higher standard. The school was rated Good by Ofsted in May 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (1.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 0.6 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in the School Council, play in The Welsh Cup, and engage with arts through Birmingham Royal Ballet and the Carnival procession. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 212 pupils in a capacity of 248 places, leaving 36 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the expected standard in core subjects? What provisions exist for children who arrive late or leave early due to the lack of wraparound care? How does the School Council influence decisions that affect daily school life?
