About St Mary's Catholic Primary School

St Mary's Catholic Primary School sits within the South Gloucestershire local authority, a mixed state primary for children aged 4 to 11. Among the 93 primary schools in the area, it ranks 35th overall, placing it comfortably in the top half of local provision. Its closest high-performing peers include Hambrook Primary School, Marshfield Church of England Primary School, and Frampton Cotterell Church of England Primary School, all of which score higher on the same ranking metric. The school is one of only five primaries in the authority rated Outstanding by Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection, though its current overall effectiveness is Good following an ungraded inspection in June 2024 that confirmed it remains Good. The nearest Outstanding-rated alternative is Almondsbury Church of England Primary School, about 3.9 kilometres away. With a Roman Catholic religious character and a headteacher in Charlotte Dunt, the school serves a relatively small cohort of 206 pupils, operating very close to its capacity of 210.
