Ofsted: Requires improvement · 2022 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
2.2/10 Below average

218th of 230 primary schools in Oxfordshire we can score, 244 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 4,274 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.9/10 among them, against 3.3/10 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 2024/25, 63.0% 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 "Requires improvement" in October 2022. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.9 out of 10 among them, against 3.3 out of 10 nationally.

Getting in. The school has 68 pupils in a building with 105 places, leaving 37 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 raise the 0.0% figure for higher standards in maths? What specific actions have been taken since the 2022 inspection to address the "Requires improvement" rating? How do the smaller class sizes resulting from the 37 spare places impact individual pupil support?
