About Orchard Primary School

Orchard Primary School in Wychavon holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections, including an ungraded visit in 2022 that confirmed the school remains Good. The most telling exam metric for this primary school is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which sits at 55% for the 2023/24 academic year. That figure is below the Worcestershire local authority average of 61%, placing Orchard in the bottom half of schools nationally on this measure. Breaking the results down by subject, writing is the strongest area, with 86% of pupils meeting the expected standard, while reading (72%) and maths (66%) are more mixed. Only 3% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects, though 21% reached that level in reading and 14% in writing. The school’s average scaled scores — 104 in reading and 101 in maths — are close to the national benchmark of 100, suggesting a solid if unexceptional academic profile.
