About St Andrew's Church of England Primary School, Cromhall

St Andrew's Church of England Primary School in Cromhall sits at the bottom of the South Gloucestershire primary school rankings, with just 43% of its pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at Key Stage 2. That is a full 18 percentage points below the local authority average of 61%, placing the school 63rd out of 69 primaries in the area. The gap is even starker when you look at the top performers in the borough — schools like Hambrook Primary, which achieve scores in the high 90s. For parents weighing up options, this is a school where academic attainment is clearly a significant challenge, and the data suggests it is struggling to keep pace with its neighbours.
