About Deddington Church of England Primary School

Deddington Church of England Primary School sits within the Oxfordshire local authority, a mixed state primary for children aged 4 to 11. In the Cherwell district, it ranks 32nd out of 45 primary schools, placing it in the bottom half of its immediate area. Among its top-performing local peers are Longworth Primary School, Hornton Primary School, and Brightwell-Cum-Sotwell Church of England Primary School, all of which score higher on the same ranking metric. The school is led by headteacher Clive Evans and has a Church of England religious character, though it is open to all families in the community. With 211 pupils on roll, it is just one over its official capacity of 210, which suggests it is a popular choice locally. The school also has a nursery provision, though it does not offer a sixth form or boarding. Its facilities include a library, playing fields, art studios, a sensory room, a sports hall, and music rooms, alongside a chapel on site.
