About Meysey Hampton Church of England Primary School

Meysey Hampton Church of England Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results stand in stark contrast to the Gloucestershire average. While the local authority average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 59%, this school achieved a perfect 100% in its most recent assessments. That places it first among 38 primary schools in the Cotswold district and second nationally out of 13,686 schools. The gap is a full 41 percentage points above the typical local school. This level of performance is unusual for a small village primary with 102 pupils, and it suggests a consistency in teaching that many larger schools struggle to match. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, in 2022, rated it Good across every category, including leadership, behaviour and early years provision. Its previous inspection, in 2007, had awarded Outstanding, so while the headline grade has stepped down, the academic results since then have only strengthened.
