Bampton Church of England Primary School
About Bampton Church of England Primary School
Bampton Church of England Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in February 2024, with the same rating applied across all individual categories including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. This represents a consistent outcome from its previous inspection in 2014, which also rated the school Good overall. However, the most telling academic metric comes from the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results, where just 42% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. This figure sits well below the Devon local authority average of 57% for primary schools, and places Bampton in the bottom half of schools nationally, ranking 29th out of 35 schools in the Mid Devon local area. The school's ranking score of 42 out of 100 reflects this performance gap, though it is worth noting that the school serves a small cohort of just 114 pupils, meaning individual results can have an outsized impact on overall percentages.
