About Repton Manor Primary School

Repton Manor Primary School sits in the bottom half of Kent primary schools when it comes to the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, with 56% hitting that benchmark against a local authority average of 63%. That seven-point gap is worth noting, though the school’s performance is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects. In reading, 74% of pupils met the expected standard and the average score of 106 is solid, while in writing 73% achieved the expected level. Maths is where the dip is most visible, with 66% reaching the expected standard and an average score of 103. The school’s ranking of 29th out of 40 primary schools in the Ashford district places it in the bottom 50% nationally, but its Ofsted rating of Good, confirmed in a November 2023 inspection, suggests the school is providing a broadly effective education despite these headline figures.
