About Bowsland Green Primary School

Bowsland Green Primary School has been rated Good by Ofsted, with a particularly strong endorsement for its leadership and management, which was judged Outstanding in the most recent graded inspection. This represents a clear improvement from the school's previous rating of Requires Improvement in 2014, and the ungraded inspection in 2022 confirmed that the school remains Good. On the most informative exam metric available, Key Stage 2 reading, writing and maths combined, 51% of pupils met the expected standard in the 2023/24 academic year. This is below the South Gloucestershire local authority average of 61%, placing the school 56th out of 69 primary schools in the area. However, the picture is more nuanced when looking at individual subjects: 69% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, and the average reading score was 104, while in maths the average score was 102 and 61% met the expected standard.
