Ofsted: Good · 2022 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
3.4/10 Below average

182nd 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 4,352 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.2/10 among them, against 2.4/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 57.0 · 32 40% 1.29
Ofsted 52 35% 1.81

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 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2022. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.2 out of 10 among them, against 2.4 out of 10 nationally.

Getting in. The school has 186 pupils in a capacity of 217, leaving 31 spare places. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. With 31 places available, how quickly do new starters integrate into existing class groups? Since the last inspection was in 2022, what specific improvements have been made to raise the percentage of pupils reaching the higher standard? How does the school support pupils who are not yet meeting the expected standard in core subjects?
