St Joseph's Catholic Primary School
About St Joseph's Catholic Primary School
St Joseph's Catholic Primary School in Wychavon was rated Requires Improvement overall in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022, a downgrade from the Good rating it had held previously. The inspection report gave the school Requires Improvement in four of the five graded categories: quality of education, personal development, behaviour and attitudes, and leadership and management. Only early years provision was rated Good. This is a small primary school with 184 pupils on roll, well under its capacity of 210, and it serves a community where 23. 9% of pupils are eligible for free school meals. The school does not publish Key Stage 2 SATs results in the available data, so it is not possible to compare its academic performance against the Worcestershire local authority average of 61% achieving the expected standard. However, the Ofsted judgement suggests that academic outcomes are an area requiring focused improvement.
