On the headline measure this school is in the lower half of state-funded primaries in England.

Compared with the fifth of schools whose intake is most disadvantaged, which is where this one sits, it is in the better-performing half.

There are no progress measures for primary schools any more. They were calculated from a key stage 1 baseline, and statutory key stage 1 tests ended in 2023, so nothing has been published since. That makes attainment the only official measure — and attainment tracks intake closely, which is why the comparison against similar schools above is the more useful of the two lines.
