About Boxgrove Primary School

Boxgrove Primary School in Guildford holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025, but the detail tells a more nuanced story. Inspectors awarded Outstanding marks across three of the four graded categories: early years provision, personal development, and behaviour and attitudes, with leadership and management also judged Outstanding. The overall effectiveness was not judged on this occasion, but the school’s academic outcomes at Key Stage 2 offer a clear picture. In the 2023/24 academic year, 62% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which is slightly below the Surrey local authority average of 66%. That places Boxgrove 10th out of 19 primary schools in the Guildford local area, putting it in the bottom half of its immediate peers. The school’s national percentile ranking of 51. 4 means it sits almost exactly in the middle of all primary schools across England.
