Rowlands Castle St John's Church of England Controlled Primary School

Rowlands Castle St John's Church of England Controlled Primary School demonstrates a strong overall performance, with effective leadership and a commitment to providing a quality education for all pupils. The school has established a solid foundation for early years learning, and pupils typically achieve well in reading, writing, and mathematics, exceeding the national averages in these subjects by the end of key stage 2. The inclusive ethos of the school supports pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) effectively, allowing them to progress alongside their peers. However, there are some concerns regarding attendance, particularly among certain groups of pupils, which leaders are actively addressing to ensure all students have the chance to thrive. The school is in a context of relatively low levels of disadvantage and SEND support. With a total pupil number close to average but a capacity below average, the school actively engages with families to improve attendance rates. The positive behavior and engagement of pupils reflect the nurturing environment cultivated by staff, although some inconsistencies in curriculum delivery need to be consistently addressed to secure future learning outcomes for every child.
