Ospringe Church of England Primary School
About Ospringe Church of England Primary School
Ospringe Church of England Primary School’s headline KS2 metric sits slightly below the Kent local authority average, with 57% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, against the LA average of 63%. That six-point gap places the school in the bottom half of primary schools in Swale, where it ranks 33rd out of 48, and in the bottom 50% nationally. The picture is mixed when you dig into individual subjects: 73% hit the expected standard in writing and 70% in reading, but maths lags at 67%. At the higher standard, the school is notably weaker — just 7% achieved the higher benchmark in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with 13% in maths alone and 33% in reading. For parents weighing up options, this suggests a school that gets most children to a solid level in literacy but struggles to push a significant proportion to the top tier, particularly in maths.
