About Exminster Community Primary

Exminster Community Primary’s Key Stage 2 results comfortably exceed the Devon local authority average for primary schools. The school’s proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined stands at 66%, a solid nine percentage points above the LA average of 57%. That gap widens further at the higher standard, where 6% of Exminster pupils achieved the top benchmark compared with a typical Devon primary. In individual subjects, reading is a particular strength: 83% of pupils met the expected standard and 42% reached the higher threshold, with an average scaled score of 107. Maths and writing are also above the LA norm, with 78% and 77% respectively hitting the expected level. The school ranks 17th out of 43 primary schools in the Teignbridge area, placing it in the top 40% locally, and sits in the top half nationally. These are strong, consistent results for a state primary that is not selective and serves a mixed catchment.
