Aveton Gifford CofE Primary School

Kingsbridge, TQ7 4LB · Devon · primary school

Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Expected standard Mixed Primary Church of England
8.9/10 Well above average

7th of 280 primary schools in Devon we can score, 310 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 — 8.9/10 against 4,317 of them, against 8.9/10 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.

How this is worked out
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 79.0 · 86 40% 3.43
Ofsted 91 35% 3.18
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 21.0 · 93 25% 2.32

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

Get to know the school

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 79.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 21.0% 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 (8.9 out of 10 either way).

Beyond the classroom. The school offers both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 101 pupils in a building with 70 places, meaning it is over capacity by 31. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 31 more pupils than its official capacity? What specific activities take place during the breakfast and after-school clubs? How does the school support pupils who are working towards the higher standard in core subjects?
