About Churchdown Village Junior School

Churchdown Village Junior School holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a grade it has maintained across both its graded inspections. The single most telling academic metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 42%. That figure is well below the Gloucestershire local authority average of 59%, placing the school 175th out of 243 primary schools in the county. Within the more local Tewkesbury ranking, it sits 23rd out of 24 schools. The biggest gap appears in writing, where only 43% of pupils met the expected standard, compared with 72% in maths and 75% in reading. At the higher standard, just 5% of pupils achieved the top level across all three subjects, while 30% did so in maths and 32% in reading. The average scaled scores were 103 for maths and 105 for reading, both slightly above the national baseline of 100.
