Shrivenham Church of England School

Swindon, SN6 8FX · Oxfordshire · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
3.3/10 Below average

187th 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 3,967 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.5/10 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.

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, 48.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 4.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.5 out of 10 among them, against 2.4 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils access music lessons and Rock and pop band lessons.

Getting in. The school has 244 pupils in a building with 315 places, leaving 71 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 support pupils who are below the expected standard in core subjects? What provisions are available for children who need care before or after the school day? How does the curriculum adapt to the smaller class sizes?
