About St. Clements Hill Primary Academy
If you're a parent weighing up St. Clements Hill Primary Academy, the first thing to know is that 78% of parents who responded to the Ofsted Parent View survey would recommend the school. That's a solid majority, though it's worth noting the survey drew 59 responses, so it's a decent-sized sample. The school is clearly popular locally: for the 2025/26 intake, it received 78 applications for just 30 places, with 43 of those as first preferences. That works out to an oversubscription ratio of 2.6, meaning nearly three families compete for every spot. On the happiness front, 90% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy at the school, and 97% felt their child is safe. Behaviour gets a slightly more mixed response — 78% agreed the school ensures good behaviour, but 14% disagreed. The school's most recent Ofsted inspection, in June 2025, rated it Good across all areas including behaviour and attitudes, leadership, and the quality of education. That's a clear step up from its previous inspection in 2023, when it was judged to Require Improvement overall.
