About Christ Church Church of England Junior School, Ramsgate
Christ Church Church of England Junior School, Ramsgate, sits within the Kent local authority and is one of 459 primary schools in the county. In the Thanet district, it ranks 13th out of 25 primary schools based on the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at Key Stage 2. This places it in the bottom half of schools locally, though it is worth noting that the top-performing peers in the wider Kent area include Stelling Minnis Church of England Primary School, Leigh Academy Dartford and Temple Ewell Church of England Primary School, all of which achieve the highest ranking scores. The school serves a community with a high level of disadvantage: 52. 3% of its 220 pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average. The school has capacity for 240 pupils, so there is some room for growth. Its most recent Ofsted inspection, a graded visit in 2016, rated the school Good overall, with leadership and management also judged Good. A subsequent ungraded inspection in 2021 confirmed that the school remains Good.
