About Monkston Primary School

Monkston Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained consistently across its two most recent inspections. The school’s most recent graded inspection took place in 2013, and an ungraded inspection in 2021 confirmed that it remains Good. The strongest single metric for understanding academic outcomes here is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 72 per cent. That is ten percentage points above the Milton Keynes local authority average of 62 per cent, placing Monkston 10th out of 54 primary schools in the area and inside the top 20 per cent nationally. The school also performs well on individual subjects: 90 per cent of pupils met the expected standard in writing, 82 per cent in maths and 78 per cent in reading. Average scaled scores sit at 105 for maths and 106 for reading, both comfortably above the national benchmark of 100.
