St Joseph's Catholic Primary School at a glance

Located in Malvern, Worcestershire, St Joseph's Catholic Primary School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as a voluntary aided school with a Roman Catholic religious character. The school educates roughly 106 pupils aged 4 to 11. Ofsted judged the school to be 'Good' at its most recent inspection. 56% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, broadly in line with the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 9.0 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 105 in reading and 103 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
