About Twyning School

Twyning School, a state primary in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire, was rated Good overall in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, a rating it has held consistently since at least its previous graded inspection a decade earlier. The inspection report, however, reveals real strengths in two specific areas: both Behaviour and Attitudes and Personal Development were judged Outstanding. This suggests a school where children feel safe and are encouraged to grow as individuals, even as the core academic provision is solidly Good. The Early Years provision also earned a Good rating, which is a reassuring sign for parents considering the school for their child from age four. The school is relatively small, with 128 pupils against a capacity of 140, and a below-average proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals at 9.4%.
