About Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School

Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School in Gravesham was rated Good in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection in 2018, and a subsequent ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed it remains Good. The school has clearly turned a corner since its previous graded inspection in 2016, when it was judged to Require Improvement overall. The most telling exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2: just 38% did so in the 2023/24 academic year. That is significantly below the Kent local authority average of 63%, and it places the school 24th out of 25 primary schools in the Gravesham district. Nationally, Holy Trinity sits in the bottom 7% of all primary schools on this measure, according to the ranking data.
