Willowbrook Primary School at a glance

Located in Trowbridge, Wiltshire, Willowbrook Primary School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as an academy sponsor led. The school educates roughly 95 pupils aged 4 to 11. Ofsted judged the school to be 'Good' at its most recent inspection. 38% 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 2.0 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 103 in reading and 99 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 6% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 53% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above.
