St Mary's CofE Primary School

About St Mary's CofE Primary School

St Mary's CofE Primary School is a Church of England state primary in Bath and North East Somerset, led by headteacher Michelle Parsons. It sits among 63 primary schools in the local authority, where only seven hold an Outstanding rating from Ofsted. St Mary's is one of them, following a remarkable turnaround from its previous inspection in 2019, when it was rated Inadequate overall. In its most recent graded inspection in October 2024, the school received Outstanding in every category judged: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. The nearest other Outstanding-rated primary is High Littleton CofE VC Primary School, about 2.9 km away. Within the LA, the top-performing peers on the KS2 expected standard metric are Freshford Church School, St Julian's Church School, and Shoscombe Church School. St Mary's itself ranks 29th out of 52 primaries in the LA on that measure, placing it in the bottom half of local schools, though its overall Ofsted rating tells a different story about the quality of its provision.
