About Westonzoyland Community Primary School

Westonzoyland Community Primary School was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025, a rating it has held consistently since its previous inspection in 2015. The most telling academic metric for this 173-pupil primary in Somerset is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2, which stands at 53%. That figure is below the local authority average of 59%, placing the school 85th out of 134 primary schools in Somerset and in the bottom half nationally. Individual subject scores tell a more nuanced story: the average maths score was 101, reading averaged 103, and 68% of pupils met the expected standard in maths specifically, compared with 63% in both reading and writing. Only 5% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects, though 11% did so in maths alone.
