About St Michael's Easthampstead Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School

St Michael's Easthampstead Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School sits within the Bracknell Forest local authority, a primary landscape where only two schools currently hold an Outstanding Ofsted rating. The school itself ranks 10th out of 23 primary schools in the borough, placing it in the top half locally. Its nearest Outstanding-rated neighbour is King's Academy Oakwood, about three kilometres away. Among the top-performing peers in the area, Crowthorne Church of England Primary School leads with a ranking score of 93, followed by St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, Bracknell at 81, and Great Hollands Primary School at 74. St Michael's, with its Church of England character and headteacher Shaun Riordan, serves 197 pupils against a capacity of 210, meaning it is close to full but not yet oversubscribed in terms of total places. The school is a mixed, state-funded primary for children aged 4 to 11, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024 confirmed a Good rating across all graded areas, including behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision.
