Loders CofE Primary Academy

About Loders CofE Primary Academy

Loders CofE Primary Academy’s headline KS2 results sit well below the Dorset local authority average for primary schools. Just 33% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a county average of 56%. That places the school 64th out of 68 primaries in Dorset, firmly in the bottom half of the league table. The picture is mixed when you look at individual subjects: 67% reached the expected level in both reading and writing, but only 56% did so in maths, and no child at all achieved the higher standard in writing or the combined RWM measure. Reading and maths higher-standard scores were also low, at 11% and 22% respectively. The school’s average maths scaled score of 101 is exactly the national benchmark, while the reading average of 98 is slightly below. These are not the numbers you’d expect from a school with a Good Ofsted rating, and they suggest that while the school may be strong on pastoral care, academic outcomes are a real concern for parents prioritising attainment.
