About Stogursey Church of England Primary School

Stogursey Church of England Primary School’s Key Stage 2 results sit well below the Somerset local authority average, which is a significant point for parents to weigh up. In the 2023/24 academic year, just 29% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 59%. That places the school 129th out of 134 primary schools in Somerset, putting it in the bottom 5% locally and nationally. The picture is mixed by subject: 57% reached the expected level in reading, 71% in writing, but only 29% in maths. At the higher standard, just 14% of pupils achieved across all three subjects. These figures suggest that while writing is a relative strength, maths and reading attainment are areas where the school is struggling to match its peers.
