About Holly Spring Primary School

Holly Spring Primary School in Bracknell Forest was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in March 2024, a rating it has held consistently across both its recent inspections. The school’s strongest academic indicator comes from its Key Stage 2 results for the 2023/24 academic year, where 56% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits below the local authority average of 63%, placing the school 17th out of 23 primary schools in Bracknell Forest.
