About Andoversford Primary School

Andoversford Primary School is a small state primary in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, serving just 67 pupils from ages 4 to 11. It sits within a local authority that includes 243 primary schools, and its ranking among them places it in the bottom half of the area. The top-performing local peers — Meysey Hampton Church of England Primary School, Temple Guiting Church of England School, and Thrupp School — all achieved higher ranking scores, which gives parents a useful benchmark when comparing options nearby. The school is non-religious and led by headteacher Rachel Bradley-McKay, with a capacity of 105 that suggests room to grow. It offers nursery provision and is co-educational, making it a straightforward choice for families seeking a village-style primary within the Gloucestershire state system.
