Mixed Primary Church of England
4.4/10 Broadly average

111st 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 the 2,905 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.3/10 among them, against 4.4/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

How this is worked out
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 60.0 · 39 62% 2.40
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 7.0 · 51 38% 1.96

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 7.0% 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 4.4 out of 10 nationally.

Getting in. The school has 102 pupils in a capacity of 107 places, leaving 5 spare spots. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are not reaching the expected standard in core subjects? With only 5 places remaining, what is the process for securing a spot if you are not currently on the register? How does the school engage parents in monitoring individual progress given the small cohort size?
