Barton Stacey Church of England Primary School sits within the Hampshire local authority, a large county with 425 primary schools. In the Test Valley area, it ranks 28th out of 40 primaries, placing it in the bottom half locally. The top-performing peers in the same LA include Preston Candover Church of England Primary School, Our Lady and St Joseph Catholic Primary School, and St Faith's Church of England Primary School, all of which score higher on the same ranking metric. Barton Stacey is a small, state-funded, mixed primary for children aged 4 to 11, with a Church of England religious character. Headteacher Lee Stangroom leads a school of 108 pupils, operating just under its capacity of 119.
