Summary
With a recent Ofsted rating of Good, this primary school demonstrates strong overall performance, particularly in achieving top 98% for expected levels in reading, writing, and mathematics at KS2. However, it's important to note that only 27% of pupils meet the expected standards in these subjects, and there are no students achieving at a higher standard. The school serves a small community with just 68 pupils, which may offer a more personalized learning environment, though it also reflects limited published data on broader performance metrics.
