Wellington Eagles Primary Academy

About Wellington Eagles Primary Academy

Wellington Eagles Primary Academy sits in a challenging position within Wiltshire’s primary landscape. Its headline metric — the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — stands at 54%, which is four percentage points below the local authority average of 58%. That gap places the school 96th out of 201 primaries in Wiltshire, firmly in the bottom half of the county. The ranking score of 54 puts it in the bottom 50% nationally too, at the 70th percentile. For context, the top-performing local schools like Stanton St Quintin Primary and Nursery School score 100 on the same measure. So while Wellington Eagles isn’t among the weakest in the area, it’s clearly not keeping pace with the typical Wiltshire primary. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, in March 2024, rated it Requires Improvement overall, with leadership, behaviour and the quality of education all judged to require improvement. That inspection also flagged early years provision and personal development as Good, which offers a more positive counterpoint.
