About St George's CofE Infant and Nursery School

St George's CofE Infant and Nursery School serves children from age 3 to 7 in Torridge, Devon, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2019 rated it Good overall, with Good marks for early years provision, leadership and management, and overall effectiveness. The school has held a Good rating across both its recent inspections, with the previous graded inspection in 2015 also awarding Good overall. While the local authority average for Key Stage 2 attainment in Devon primary schools sits at 57, it is important to note that St George's is an infant and nursery school, meaning its pupils do not sit KS2 SATs, so a direct comparison on that metric is not possible. However, the school's consistent Ofsted performance against a backdrop where only five out of 309 primary schools in Devon have achieved Outstanding suggests that St George's is delivering a solidly reliable standard of education within its local context.
