About All Saints Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School
All Saints Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School in Dorset holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections. The school’s most recent graded inspection took place in 2014, and an ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed that it remains Good. In that 2014 graded inspection, inspectors rated the school Good across the board, including leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness. For a small primary school with a capacity of just 119 pupils, this consistent Good rating is a solid indicator of reliable quality. The school’s most informative exam metric is the local authority average for Key Stage 2, which sits at 56. While All Saints’ own KS2 results are not provided in the data, the Dorset average gives parents a useful benchmark: a score of 56 means roughly 56% of pupils across the authority meet the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths. This places the school in a context where the majority of local primary pupils are achieving at that level, and All Saints’ Good rating suggests it is performing at least in line with that.
