About St Michael's Church of England Primary School

St Michael's Church of England Primary School in Wiltshire sits in the bottom half of the local authority rankings for its key stage 2 results, placing 119th out of 159 primary schools. Its headline metric — the percentage of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — stands at 47%, which is notably below the Wiltshire average of 58%. This gap of 11 percentage points is significant and suggests that, on this measure, the school is performing below the typical level for its area. The school's ranking in the South West region is similarly modest, at 1132nd out of 1469 primaries, and nationally it sits in the 82nd percentile. For parents focused on academic attainment at the expected level, these figures are worth weighing carefully against other local options.
