About Wootey Junior School

Wootey Junior School was rated Good in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection in 2012, and a subsequent ungraded inspection in 2022 confirmed the school remains Good. The most telling academic metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined (the RWM measure), which stood at 67% in the 2023/24 academic year. That is six percentage points above the Hampshire local authority average of 61%, placing the school comfortably in the top half of primary schools in East Hampshire. Digging into the individual subjects, writing had the highest expected standard rate at 78%, followed by maths at 73% and reading at 69%. The average scaled scores for reading (103) and maths (104) are both above the national benchmark of 100. However, the proportion of pupils reaching the higher standard in all three subjects is just 4%, which is notably low and suggests that while most children achieve a solid baseline, stretching the highest attainers may be an area for development.
