About Oakhurst Community Primary School

Oakhurst Community Primary School sits within the Swindon local authority, a mixed state primary for children aged 3 to 11. In the most recent local rankings, it placed 28th out of 51 primary schools in the area, placing it in the bottom half of the LA table. The top-performing peers nearby include Bishopstone Church of England Primary School, The Croft Primary School, and Lift Hazelwood, all of which scored higher on the same ranking metric. For families looking at the very highest-rated options, the nearest Outstanding-rated school is Haydon Wick Primary School, about 2.2 kilometres away. Oakhurst itself has held a Good rating from Ofsted since at least 2011, and its most recent graded inspection in 2013 confirmed that rating, with leadership and management also judged Good. An ungraded inspection in 2018 found the school continues to be Good, so it has maintained a consistent standard over time.
