Cropredy Church of England Primary School

Banbury, OX17 1PU · Oxfordshire · primary school

Ofsted: Requires improvement · 2021 Inspected 4 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
6.6/10 Above average

55th of 230 primary schools in Oxfordshire we can score, 244 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 — 9.7/10 against 4,293 of them, against 9.6/10 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 91.0 · 98 42% 4.08
Ofsted 3 32% 0.10
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 22.0 · 94 26% 2.44

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, 91.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 22.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in 2021. 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 (9.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.6 out of 10 against all schools).

Getting in. The school has 186 pupils in a capacity of 210 places, leaving 24 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school plan to address the "Requires improvement" rating from its 2021 inspection? What specific steps are being taken to raise the 22.0% of pupils reaching the higher standard? How does the school support pupils in the 24 available places to ensure they integrate well with the existing community?
