Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Expected standard Mixed Primary Church of England
2.5/10 Below average

219th 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 2,385 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.4/10 among them, against 3.4/10 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, 64.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, matching the national median of 64%. The proportion reaching the higher standard was 0.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2026. 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 3.4 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in swimming, sports day, a swimming gala, and federation sports events, alongside walks to Silver Wood. A breakfast club is available, but there is no after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 172 pupils in a capacity of 175, leaving 3 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. With only 3 places remaining, how does the school manage the waiting list for new starters? Since the higher standard attainment is 0.0%, what specific support is offered to pupils aiming for greater depth? How does the school support pupils during the lunchtime period, given the absence of an after-school club?
