About St James and Ebrington Church of England Primary School

St James and Ebrington Church of England Primary School currently holds a Requires Improvement rating from Ofsted, a downgrade from its previous Good grade. The inspection, which took place in 2019, rated both leadership and management and the overall effectiveness as Requires Improvement, while early years provision was also judged to require improvement. The most telling academic metric comes from the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results: just 57% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits below the Gloucestershire local authority average of 59%, placing the school 111th out of 243 primary schools in the county. Within the Cotswold district, it ranks 21st out of 38 schools, putting it in the bottom half of local primaries. Nationally, the school sits in the 63rd percentile, meaning roughly a third of schools across England performed worse on this measure.
