Wheatfields Junior Mixed School
St Albans, AL4 9NT · Hertfordshire · primary school
31st of 340 primary schools in Hertfordshire we can score, 401 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 — 9.4/10 against 2,256 of them, against 9.6/10 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.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 87.0 · 96 | 40% | 3.82 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 28.0 · 97 | 25% | 2.43 |
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, 87.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 28.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2023. 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 (9.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.6 out of 10 against all schools).
Getting in. The school has 360 pupils in a school with 360 places. This means 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 demand exceeds the 360 available places? What specific support is offered to pupils who do not reach the higher standard in core subjects? How does the school maintain its Good rating following the 2023 inspection?
