16th of 27 primary schools in Slough we can score, 28 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 — 6.7/10 against 3,014 of them, against 6.1/10 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 | 68.0 · 60 | 40% | 2.40 |
| 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 Wexham Court Primary School
Overview
Wexham Court Primary School has “taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection.” Pupils are described as “very happy and proud” within a “vibrant and ambitious” community where they feel a strong sense of belonging. The school continues to provide high-quality education with exceptional behaviour and clear curriculum sequencing.
Strengths
- Early reading is taught “exceptionally well,” with staff delivering phonics with “absolute precision” and providing targeted support for those falling behind.
- The curriculum is “very well sequenced” across subjects, with teachers routinely checking pupil knowledge before progressing to new learning.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive “effective support and guidance,” including bespoke curricula for those with complex needs.
- The school’s approach to developing the “whole child” is a “core strength,” offering pupils leadership roles and opportunities to contribute to the local community.
- Staff are “caring and kind,” modelling positive behaviour that pupils “replicate impressively,” resulting in “exemplary attitudes towards their learning.”
Areas to improve
- Occasionally, teaching and activities “do not challenge pupils effectively,” meaning work is “not challenging enough” in some subjects.
- The school should continue to improve staff teaching expertise to ensure all pupils develop a “strong body of knowledge over time in all subjects.”
Safeguarding
The report states that “the arrangements for safeguarding are effective.”
