About Foxhills Junior School

Foxhills Junior School sits comfortably above the Hampshire local authority average for its key stage 2 results, with 76% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a LA average of 61%. That 15-point gap is a meaningful indicator of stronger-than-typical performance for a state primary in the New Forest. The school also ranks 7th out of 35 primaries in the New Forest district, placing it in the top 20% locally and the top 25% nationally for this metric. While it doesn't reach the heights of the very top performers in the county — Preston Candover Church of England Primary School, for instance, scores a perfect 100 on the same ranking — Foxhills is clearly a solid, above-average option for families looking at junior schools in the area.
