About East Allington Primary School

East Allington Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained consistently across its two most recent inspections, the latest of which took place in 2023. The school’s strongest academic indicator is its Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard, where 69% of pupils met the benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure sits comfortably above the Devon local authority average of 57%, placing the school in the top half of primary schools within the South Hams district, where it ranks 17th out of 35. Digging into the individual subjects, the picture is particularly strong in reading: 92% of pupils reached the expected standard and 62% achieved the higher standard, with an average scaled score of 110. Maths also performed well, with 92% at the expected level and an average score of 106. Writing and maths higher-standard attainment were lower, at 8% and 15% respectively, but the overall results suggest a school that reliably delivers solid core outcomes for its pupils.
