Check the area around this school
24th of 218 primary schools in Cornwall we can score, 236 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 8.6/10 against 3,752 of them, against 8.0/10 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
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 83.0 · 92 | 40% | 3.67 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 9.0 · 61 | 25% | 1.53 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Tregony Community Primary School
Overview
Tregony Community Primary School has “taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection.” Pupils are described as “happy, safe and proud” to attend this “friendly school,” where they “achieve well” and demonstrate “exemplary behaviour.” The report confirms that the school continues to provide a high-quality education with strong relationships and a well-structured curriculum.
Strengths
- Pupils show “very positive attitudes to learning” and play “harmoniously” in the playground, embodying values of “respect, resilience and responsibility.”
- The school has constructed an “ambitious curriculum” with identified “sticky knowledge,” ensuring pupils build deep understanding over time, particularly in history and mathematics.
- Phonics teaching is implemented with “consistency and precision,” helping pupils develop “fluency and confidence” in reading from the start of Reception.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are “well supported” through “bespoke support” and achieve well while learning the same curriculum as their peers.
- Staff are “valued and supported,” with measures in place to reduce workload, and trustees hold the school to account “effectively.”
Areas to improve
- In a few subjects, the school must ensure teaching places enough emphasis on helping pupils build a “strong body of subject-specific vocabulary,” as some do not use it confidently.
Safeguarding
The report states that “the arrangements for safeguarding are effective.”
