Summary

With a recent Ofsted rating of Good, this primary school demonstrates a commitment to quality education, although it faces challenges with Key Stage 2 performance, where only 23% of pupils meet the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths. Despite being in the top 99% nationally for expected standards, the school has limited data on higher achievement levels, as none of the students reached the higher standard. Parents may appreciate the strong community focus, given its small size of 72 pupils, but should consider the academic performance when making their decision.
