About New Hinksey Church of England Primary School

New Hinksey Church of England Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its most recent inspections, including an ungraded visit in December 2024 where standards were confirmed as being maintained. The most telling academic metric for this small primary is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2, which stands at 46%. This places the school below the Oxfordshire local authority average of 61% and ranks it 182nd out of 242 similar schools in the county. In the Oxford local authority area specifically, it sits 28th out of 31 primary schools, putting it in the bottom tier locally. The school’s ranking score of 46 on this metric places it in the bottom 50% nationally, at the 84th percentile. These figures suggest that while the school is judged to be providing a good standard of education overall, its headline academic outcomes in core subjects are notably lower than many of its neighbours.
