Kingshill Church School
About Kingshill Church School
Kingshill Church School is a small Church of England primary in North Somerset, serving just 112 pupils against a capacity of 210. Within the local authority’s 64 primary schools, it ranks 47th on the key stage 2 expected standard measure, placing it in the bottom half of the table. The top-performing peers in the area include Northleaze Church of England Primary School, Winscombe Primary School, and St Peter’s Church of England Primary School, all of which score significantly higher on the same metric. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in March 2024, confirmed it remains Good overall, a notable improvement from its previous graded inspection in 2015 when it was rated Inadequate. Leadership and management were judged Outstanding in that 2015 inspection, and the early years provision was rated Good. The school has clearly turned a corner since its earlier difficulties, though it still has ground to make up compared with its strongest local competitors.
