Winterslow Church of England Primary School

Salisbury, SP5 1RD · Wiltshire · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 1 year ago Mixed Primary Church of England
5.8/10 Broadly average

53rd of 181 primary schools in Wiltshire we can score, 201 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 3,424 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.6/10 among them, against 6.2/10 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, 67.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 11.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.6 out of 10 among them, against 6.2 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join the Sparklers choir and Young Voices, attend Forest School, and perform in musical soirees, nativity plays, and pantomimes. Trips include visits to Roche Court, Salisbury Museum, and London. The school has neither a breakfast club nor an after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 167 pupils in a building with 210 places, leaving 43 spare places. 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 arrive without a breakfast club? What specific steps are being taken to improve the gap between the school’s 4.6/10 similar-intake score and the national 6.2/10? How do the current class sizes affect individual attention during lessons?
