About Grampound Road Village CofE School

Grampound Road Village CofE School sits comfortably above the local average for its type, with 80% of its Key Stage 2 pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with Cornwall's average of 58%. That 22-point gap is significant and places the school in the top 25% nationally for this metric. It also ranks 14th out of 235 primary schools in the local authority, putting it well within the top 10% of its peers. The school's reading results are particularly strong — pupils achieved an average scaled score of 107, and 60% reached the higher standard, well above what you'd typically see in the county. Maths scores are solid too, with an average of 103 and 30% hitting the higher threshold. For a small village school with just over a hundred pupils, these outcomes punch above the local weight.
