The Heights Primary School

School overview

The Heights Primary School is a primary school serving Reading, Reading, classified by the DfE as a free school. It has 359 pupils aged 4 to 11 on roll. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 79% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. Results have held broadly steady on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 13% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 110 in reading and 109 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 15% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 4% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. The Heights Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links further down the page.
