About Ashton Keynes Church of England Primary School

Ashton Keynes Church of England Primary School holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection, but the detail beneath that headline tells a more interesting story.

On the academic front, the school’s Key Stage 2 results for 2023/24 are genuinely impressive. 93% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, a figure that puts the school well ahead of the Wiltshire local authority average of 58%.
