Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Needs attention Mixed Primary
1.1/10 Well below average

52nd of 54 primary schools in West Berkshire we can score, 67 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 4,221 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.5/10 among them, against 1.3/10 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 2023/24, 47.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 63%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. The school was inspected in March 2026 and rated Requires improvement. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.5 out of 10 among them, against 1.3 out of 10 nationally.

Getting in. The school has 41 pupils in a building with 84 places, leaving 43 spare spots. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school plan to improve attainment in the coming year following the March 2026 inspection? What support is available for pupils who are not yet meeting expected standards in core subjects? How does the small class size influence daily teaching and individual attention?
