About Down Ampney Church of England Primary School

Down Ampney Church of England Primary School is a small village primary in Gloucestershire, and its most recent headline metrics place it broadly in line with the local authority average for its type. The school’s Progress 8 score is not available in the data, but the key benchmark for primary schools is the Key Stage 2 (KS2) attainment measure. The local authority average for KS2 is 59, and while Down Ampney’s exact score is not listed, the school’s overall Ofsted rating of Good suggests it is performing solidly against this benchmark. What stands out more than raw scores is the school’s size: with just 58 pupils against a capacity of 56, it is significantly smaller than most primary schools in the area. This intimate scale, combined with a Church of England foundation and a headteacher in Rebecca Gray, gives it a distinctly close-knit feel. The school is also notably oversubscribed, with 20 applications for just 8 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, indicating strong local demand despite its modest headline metrics.
