Alveston CofE Primary School

Stratford-upon-Avon, CV37 7BZ · Warwickshire · primary school

Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Needs attention Mixed Primary Church of England
5.1/10 Broadly average

71st of 162 primary schools in Warwickshire we can score, 197 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 7.7/10 against 4,227 of them, against 7.5/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 73.0 · 73 40% 2.93
Ofsted 8 35% 0.26

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 73.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 13.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2026. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (7.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.5 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join the Shakespeare Drama Club and participate in cross country, fencing, dancing, cheer leading, netball, and football. Music lessons cover piano, violin, oboe, flute, clarinet, tenoroon/bassoon, cello, and viola. Year 6 students attend a Parliament trip and a residential. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 209 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving just 1 spare place. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. With only 1 place remaining, how does the school manage the waiting list for new starters? Since there is no breakfast club, what are the earliest drop-off times for parents? How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard in their core subjects?
