About Stockland Church of England Primary Academy

Stockland Church of England Primary Academy is a small state primary in East Devon that clearly inspires confidence among local families. In the 2025/26 admissions round, the school received 18 applications for just 13 places, with all 13 first-preference applicants offered a spot, giving an oversubscription ratio of 1.38. That level of demand is a strong signal of parent satisfaction, and it aligns with the school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in May 2024, where it was rated Good overall. Notably, inspectors awarded an Outstanding grade for behaviour and attitudes, and Good across every other category including leadership, personal development, and early years provision. This marks a significant improvement from the school’s previous inspection in 2020, when it was rated Requires Improvement across all areas. With only 72 pupils on roll against a capacity of 105, the school retains a genuinely intimate feel, and the very low proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals (1.4%) suggests a relatively affluent intake.
