Mixed Primary Church of England
3.9/10 Broadly average

101st of 181 primary schools in Wiltshire we can score, 201 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 4,001 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.3/10 among them, against 3.9/10 nationally. 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 60.0 · 39 62% 2.40
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 5.0 · 40 38% 1.55

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, 60.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 5.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.3 out of 10 among them, against 3.9 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils access craft, gardening, crochet, mindfulness, film, LEGO, STEM, and Forest School clubs, alongside football and music lessons. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.

Getting in. The school has 127 pupils in a capacity of 140, leaving 13 spare places. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are not yet meeting the expected standard in core subjects? What specific activities take place during the Forest School sessions? How does the school manage the transition for pupils moving from Year 6 to secondary school?
