About St Catharine's Catholic Primary School
St Catharine's Catholic Primary School in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire was rated Good overall in its most recent Ofsted inspection in October 2021, a clear improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2018. The inspection awarded Good across every category: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. This is a small primary school with 100 pupils on roll against a capacity of 140, and it serves a Roman Catholic community under headteacher Joanne Welch. While the school does not have published KS2 SATs results in this data, the local authority average KS2 attainment score for primary schools in Gloucestershire is 59, which gives parents a useful benchmark when considering academic expectations.
