Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
2.5/10 Below average

222nd 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.

Narrow the comparison to the 3,315 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.3/10 among them, against 1.1/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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, 44.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.3 out of 10 among them, against 1.1 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Orchard Club and participate in arts and crafts. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

Getting in. There are 59 pupils in a school with 69 places, leaving 10 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. With 44.0% meeting expected standards, what specific strategies are used to support pupils who are behind? How does the school ensure the breakfast and after-school clubs are accessible to all families? What does the daily timetable look like for a child in Year 6?
