Bathampton Primary School
About Bathampton Primary School
Bathampton Primary School’s headline KS2 results sit exactly in line with the local authority average for primary schools in Bath and North East Somerset, with 62% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That places the school 28th out of 63 primaries in the area, squarely in the middle of the pack. What stands out more is the school’s performance at the higher end: just 14% of pupils achieved the higher standard in all three subjects, which is notably lower than you might expect given the school’s overall expected rate. However, reading is a clear strength — 38% of pupils reached the higher standard in reading, and 86% met the expected level, both well above the national average. Maths and writing expected rates are 72% and 79% respectively, so while the school is solid across the board, it’s reading where Bathampton really punches above its weight compared with other primaries in the LA.
