About Kilkhampton Junior and Infant School

Kilkhampton Junior and Infant School is a state primary in Cornwall, a local authority with 235 primary schools where only eight hold an Outstanding rating from Ofsted. The school itself sits at rank 94 out of 208 in the county on the key stage 2 expected standard measure, placing it just inside the top half of Cornwall’s primaries. Its closest higher-ranked peers include Calstock Community Primary School, Landewednack Community Primary School, and St Buryan Primary School, all of which score above Kilkhampton on the same metric. With 152 pupils on roll against a capacity of 150, the school is effectively full, and it was oversubscribed for 2025/26 entry: 35 applications for 18 places, with all 18 first-preference offers taken up. That level of demand suggests local families see it as a solid, well-regarded option within the county’s primary landscape.
