Stanmore Primary School
About Stanmore Primary School
Stanmore Primary School in Winchester was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in October 2024, a notable improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in March 2022. The school now holds Good marks across all five graded categories: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. When it comes to academic outcomes at Key Stage 2, the data tells a mixed story. In the 2023/24 academic year, 57% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which is slightly below the Hampshire local authority average of 61%. The school's ranking within Winchester places it 26th out of 35 primary schools, putting it in the bottom half locally. However, individual subject scores tell a more nuanced picture: reading had a strong 75% of pupils meeting expectations, with an average scaled score of 105, while maths and writing sat at 59% and 68% respectively. The proportion of pupils achieving the higher standard across all three subjects was just 9%, though reading again led with 23% reaching that level.
