Bewdley Primary School
About Bewdley Primary School
Bewdley Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit noticeably below the Worcestershire local authority average, which is a key point for parents to weigh up. In the 2023/24 academic year, just 42% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a county average of 61%. That gap of 19 percentage points places the school in the bottom half of primary schools nationally, ranking 22nd out of 27 schools in the Wyre Forest district. On individual subjects, reading was the strongest area, with 74% meeting the expected standard and 21% reaching a higher score, while maths and writing lagged behind at 57% and 54% respectively. Only 5% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects. The school’s overall ranking score of 42 puts it in the bottom 50% nationally, and it sits 97th out of 180 similar schools across Worcestershire.
