Whiteshill Primary School

Stroud, GL6 6AT · Gloucestershire · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
4.5/10 Broadly average

131st of 219 primary schools in Gloucestershire we can score, 242 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 3,583 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.3/10 among them, against 4.2/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
