West Witney Primary School & Nursery
About West Witney Primary School & Nursery
Parents considering West Witney Primary School & Nursery will find a school that local families clearly rate highly, with 100% of respondents to the most recent Parent View survey saying they would recommend it to other parents. That level of endorsement is hard to ignore, and it is backed up by the fact that the school is oversubscribed: it has a capacity of 450 pupils and currently has more applicants than places available, a strong signal that it is a popular choice in West Oxfordshire. The school is led by headteacher Sam Birnage and serves children aged 3 to 11, with its own nursery provision on site. It is a mixed, non-religious state primary, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in June 2024 rated it Good across every category, including behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management. That is a consistent improvement from its previous inspection in 2015, which also rated it Good overall but gave early years provision a Requires Improvement grade.
