About Brighstone Church of England Aided Primary School

Brighstone Church of England Aided Primary School was rated Good overall in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, a notable improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2021. The school received Good marks across every category, including Quality of Education, Behaviour and Attitudes, Personal Development, and Leadership and Management. The most telling exam metric comes from Key Stage 2 results for the 2023/24 academic year, where 43% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits below the Isle of Wight local authority average of 52%, placing Brighstone 26th out of 35 primary schools in the area. The school’s national ranking on this measure is in the bottom 50% of all primary schools, at the 87th percentile nationally. While the combined figure is modest, individual subject results tell a more mixed story: 86% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, and 64% did so in maths, but only 50% achieved it in writing.
