About Whitewater Church of England Primary School

Whitewater Church of England Primary School is a primary school in Hook, Hampshire, classified by the DfE as a voluntary controlled school with a Church of England religious character. Around 128 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted. 39% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well below the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 15.0 percentage points compared with the previous year, though small year groups can make these figures swing sharply from year to year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 104 in reading and 102 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 11% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Whitewater Church of England Primary School their first choice was offered one of its 18 Reception places.

Overall pupil absence was 5.3%. There are about 23.7 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 9% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally.
