About Oakley Church of England Junior School

Oakley Church of England Junior School sits in a middling position within Hampshire’s primary landscape, but its headline KS2 results tell a slightly more encouraging story than the local average might suggest. Across the local authority, 61% of pupils typically reach the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. At Oakley, that figure is 62% — a whisker above the LA norm. Where the school really stands out is in reading: 87% of pupils hit the expected level, and 30% reached the higher standard, both well ahead of what you’d expect from a typical Hampshire junior. Maths expected attainment (75%) is also solid, though the higher-standard maths figure (23%) is more modest. The school’s overall ranking in Basingstoke and Deane is 17th out of 40 primaries, placing it in the bottom half nationally (52nd percentile). It’s not a standout performer, but it’s reliably above average in the basics, especially reading.
