Check the area around this school
128th 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.
Narrow the comparison to the 4,254 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.1/10 among them, against 5.7/10 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 | 66.0 · 54 | 40% | 2.16 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 9.0 · 61 | 25% | 1.53 |
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 Westfields Junior School
Overview
Pupils at Westfields Junior School enjoy attending and embrace the values to ‘unite, inspire and excel’. The report describes a school where staff have high expectations, and pupils are ‘attentive and enthusiastic about their learning’. Leaders maintain a culture of review to ensure the curriculum is relevant, resulting in pupils who achieve well and develop positive relationships with staff.
Strengths
- Personal development is described as ‘exceptional’, with pupils gaining confidence through initiatives like the annual ‘Great Debate’ and learning strategies to manage emotions and well-being.
- Pupils become ‘confident and fluent readers’, supported by the ‘Reading Masters’ system and a diverse range of books that build a ‘love for books’.
- There are ‘multitude of opportunities to assume leadership roles’, including school council positions and ‘new arrival ambassadors’, ensuring pupils’ views are valued.
- The curriculum is enhanced by enrichment activities, such as trips to the Winchester Science Centre, and SEND pupils access the ‘same ambitious curriculum as everyone else’.
- Attendance is promoted successfully through proactive strategies, including a breakfast club and the support of a family support worker.
Areas to improve
- In a few subjects, teaching does not always emphasise key knowledge and skills, leading to gaps in pupils’ understanding; the school should ensure teaching allows pupils to achieve curriculum aims in all subjects.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
