About Kidmore End Church of England Primary School

Kidmore End Church of England Primary School holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a solid foundation for any family considering it. The school’s most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 performance in reading, writing and maths combined. In the 2023/24 academic year, 58% of pupils reached the expected standard across all three subjects. That figure sits just below the Oxfordshire local authority average of 61%, placing the school in the bottom half of primary schools nationally and regionally. Within South Oxfordshire, it ranks 31st out of 48 schools on this measure. The picture is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects: 88% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, and 83% did so in maths, both strong results. Writing was the weaker area, with 67% reaching the expected level. At the higher standard, 42% of pupils achieved in reading and 29% in maths, though no pupils reached that level in writing or across all three subjects combined.
