Bishop's Stortford, CM23 2NE · Hertfordshire · primary school

Ofsted: Outstanding · 2025 Inspected 1 year ago Mixed Primary
8.3/10 Well above average

29th 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 — 7.4/10 against 4,266 of them, against 7.6/10 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
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 70.0 · 65 40% 2.62
Ofsted 96 35% 3.37
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 22.0 · 94 25% 2.35

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, 70.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 22.0% reached the higher standard. 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 (7.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.6 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in May 2025.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils access a breakfast club and an after-school club. Activities include Lego, Pro Karate Academy, Soccer Development Ltd, I-Rock School of Music, Sting Performing Arts, Football, Gymnastics, and Piano Lessons.

Getting in. The school has 456 pupils in a building with 420 places, meaning it is over capacity by 36. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 36 more pupils than its physical capacity allows? What specific support is available for the 22.0% of pupils who reached the higher standard? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support families?
