St Michaels Junior Church School at a glance

Located in Bath, Bath and North East Somerset, St Michaels Junior Church School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as an academy sponsor led with a Church of England religious character. The school educates roughly 138 pupils aged 7 to 11. Ofsted judged the school to be 'Good' at its most recent inspection. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 13% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well below the national average of 61%. That is down 18.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on 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 97 in reading and 96 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 71% 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.
