About Westclyst Community Primary School

Westclyst Community Primary School’s key stage 2 results sit comfortably above the Devon local authority average, with 64% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 57%. That seven-point gap is a solid indicator of consistent classroom performance, though the school is not among the very highest performers in the county — it ranks 96th out of 309 primary schools in Devon. Where it really stands out is in writing: 86% of pupils met the expected standard, and 9% reached the higher standard. Reading and maths expected rates were 70% and 79% respectively, with average scores of 105 and 104. The proportion hitting the higher standard in reading was 29%, and in maths 18%. Only 7% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in December 2024, confirmed that its Outstanding rating from the previous graded inspection in 2019 is being maintained, with leadership, early years provision and overall effectiveness all judged Outstanding.
