Woodston Primary School
Peterborough, PE2 9ER · Peterborough · primary school
37th of 55 primary schools in Peterborough we can score, 60 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 — 3.4/10 against 2,312 of them, against 3.1/10 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 | 58.0 · 35 | 40% | 1.39 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 2.0 · 24 | 25% | 0.60 |
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, 58.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 2.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2023. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (3.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.1 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Whizz Kids club, play swimming, Mini-League Football, and compete in Inter-Academy and Inter-House events. The school also organises a PGL trip in 2026. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. There are 560 pupils in a school with 630 places, leaving 70 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are not reaching the expected standard in maths? What specific activities are included in the Inter-House Competition Programme? How does the breakfast club structure the start of the day for younger children?
