Long Clawson Church of England Primary School
About Long Clawson Church of England Primary School
Long Clawson Church of England Primary School is a small village school in Melton, and its most recent Ofsted inspection, carried out in February 2025, awarded it a Good rating across all graded categories, including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision. While the school’s overall effectiveness was not formally judged in that inspection, the consistency of Good grades across the board is notable. Compared with the Leicestershire local authority average for Key Stage 2 attainment, which sits at 62%, Long Clawson’s own results are not directly provided in the data, but the school’s strong Ofsted record and the fact that it has held a Good rating since at least its previous inspection in 2015 suggest it is performing in line with or above the typical LA primary school. With just 52 pupils on roll against a capacity of 105, the school is significantly undersubscribed in terms of capacity, yet it was oversubscribed for the 2025/26 intake, receiving 18 applications for just 7 places, a ratio of 2. 57 applicants per place.
