About All Saints Church of England Primary School, Bexhill

All Saints Church of England Primary School in Bexhill sits in a tricky spot when you compare its headline Key Stage 2 results against the East Sussex local authority average. The school's combined reading, writing and maths expected standard score sits at 53 per cent, which is six percentage points below the LA average of 59 per cent. That gap is noticeable, and it places the school in the bottom half of primary schools in Rother, ranking 26th out of 30. Nationally, it falls in the bottom 50 per cent of schools on this metric. However, the picture is more nuanced than a single number suggests. The school serves a community with high levels of disadvantage — 47.5 per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average — and its capacity of 225 is exceeded by its current roll of 296 pupils, meaning it is significantly oversubscribed and clearly valued by local families.
