Welton Primary School
About Welton Primary School
Welton Primary School sits in the middle of the pack academically within Bath and North East Somerset, with 57% of its Year 6 pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That is five percentage points below the local authority average of 62% for primary schools, placing it 36th out of 63 schools in the area. The school’s ranking score of 57 puts it in the bottom half of the LA, though it is worth noting that the gap is modest rather than dramatic. Where Welton does shine is in reading: 86% of pupils hit the expected standard and 29% reached the higher standard, both well above the national picture. Maths tells a different story, with 62% at expected and 29% at the higher level, while writing and the combined measure both show room for improvement. The school’s Progress 8 scores are not available, so it is hard to say how much value the school adds on top of pupils’ starting points, but the raw attainment data suggests a school that is solid in literacy but less consistent in numeracy.
