About Chew Stoke Church School

Chew Stoke Church School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent graded inspection in 2014 and its ungraded inspection in 2024, which confirmed the school remains Good. The most telling exam metric for this 181-pupil primary is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — 82 per cent. That figure sits well above the Bath and North East Somerset local authority average of 62 per cent, and it places the school fourth out of 52 primary schools in the area. In national terms, Chew Stoke ranks in the top eight per cent of all primary schools on this measure. The school also performs strongly on individual subjects: 95 per cent of pupils met the expected standard in maths, 91 per cent in reading and 86 per cent in writing. Higher-standard scores are more modest — 14 per cent achieved the higher benchmark across all three subjects — but the core strength is clearly in solid, consistent attainment across the board.
