Trewidland Primary School
About Trewidland Primary School
Trewidland Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a significant achievement for a small rural school that was rated Requires Improvement in its previous graded inspection. The school’s most recent ungraded inspection in 2021 confirmed it remains Good, with leadership and management also judged Good. With only 36 pupils on roll against a capacity of 77, this is a genuinely small setting where individual attention is possible. The school’s academic story is best told through its Key Stage 2 outcomes, though the data is limited. The local authority average for KS2 attainment in Cornwall is 58, and while Trewidland’s own figure isn’t provided, the school sits in a competitive landscape where top peers like Calstock Community Primary School score 92 on a ranking measure. For a school of this size, maintaining a Good rating while serving a community with 14.7% of pupils eligible for free school meals suggests solid, consistent teaching rather than headline-grabbing results.
