About St Michael's Woolmer Green CofE VA Primary School

St Michael's Woolmer Green CofE VA Primary School sits comfortably above the local authority average for its key stage 2 headline measure. The school recorded 70% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a Hertfordshire average of 64% for primary schools. That six-point gap is a solid indicator of consistent classroom performance, and it places the school in the top half of its local authority ranking — 131st out of 401 primary schools. Within the Welwyn Hatfield borough specifically, it ranks 12th out of 34 schools on the same metric, putting it in the top 35% of its immediate area. The school's overall Ofsted rating of Good was confirmed in an ungraded inspection in November 2022, and its early years provision was judged Outstanding — a notable strength that sets the tone for pupils entering reception.
