Weston Favell CofE Primary School
Northampton, NN3 3HH · West Northamptonshire · primary school
7th of 139 primary schools in West Northamptonshire we can score, 148 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 3,025 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 7.9/10 among them, against 8.6/10 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 | 80.0 · 88 | 62% | 5.39 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 15.0 · 84 | 38% | 3.21 |
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, 80.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. A further 15.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 7.9 out of 10 among them, against 8.6 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join clubs for Kurling, Boccia, Volleyball, Dogeball, Hotshots, Yoga, Gymnastics, and Spanish. Music options include recorder, drums, guitar, piano, keyboard, strings, and the Rockstead Band. Tennis is available as a sport. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club operate on site.
Getting in. The school has 459 pupils in a capacity of 460, leaving 1 spare place. With only one vacancy, the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage admissions when there is only 1 spare place? What support is available for pupils who do not reach the expected standard? How are the various music and sports clubs scheduled to avoid conflicts?
