Kea Community Primary School

Truro, TR3 6AY · Cornwall · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 1 year ago Mixed Primary
3.8/10 Broadly average

128th of 218 primary schools in Cornwall we can score, 236 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 3,583 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.4/10 among them, against 3.1/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 57.0 · 32 40% 1.29
Ofsted 52 35% 1.81
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 3.0 · 29 25% 0.73

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, 57.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 3.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.4 out of 10 among them, against 3.1 out of 10 nationally.

Getting in. The school has 192 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving 18 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. With results below the national median, how does the school support pupils who are not meeting expected standards in maths? Since the inspection was recent, what specific improvements have been made since the 2024 report? How does the school engage parents in monitoring progress given the current pupil numbers?
