About Our Lady's Roman Catholic Primary School

Our Lady's Roman Catholic Primary School in Oxford holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections in 2022 and 2017. The 2022 graded inspection awarded Good across every category: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. The most telling academic metric comes from the school's 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results, where 68% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits comfortably above the Oxfordshire local authority average of 61%, placing the school 10th out of 31 primary schools in the city of Oxford and in the top 50% nationally. The school's overall ranking score of 68 reflects solid, consistent performance rather than headline-grabbing extremes.
