St Ebbe's Church of England Aided Primary School
About St Ebbe's Church of England Aided Primary School
St Ebbe's Church of England Aided Primary School in Oxford holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in 2015, and an ungraded inspection in June 2024 confirmed the school remains Good. The single most telling exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 62%. That figure is almost exactly in line with the Oxfordshire local authority average of 61%, placing St Ebbe's in the middle of the pack nationally — 52.7th percentile — and 16th out of 31 primary schools in Oxford. The school’s ranking score of 62 puts it in the bottom half of schools nationally, but the context matters: this is a school serving a diverse urban intake, with 12.9% of pupils eligible for free school meals, and its results reflect solid, not spectacular, academic outcomes.
