About Whitesheet Church of England Primary Academy

Whitesheet Church of England Primary Academy is a small state primary in Wiltshire with just 47 pupils, and its headline metrics paint a mixed picture compared with the local authority average. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, in 2021, rated it Good overall, with Good marks for leadership and management, early years provision, and behaviour and attitudes. That places it in the majority of Wiltshire primaries, where only six out of 201 schools hold an Outstanding rating. However, the school’s previous inspection in 2013 rated it Requires Improvement, so the jump to Good represents a clear improvement. On academic outcomes, the data is limited — no Progress 8 or KS2 SATs scores are available for this school — but the local authority average for KS2 attainment is 58, and Whitesheet’s own results are not published here, making direct comparison impossible. What stands out is the school’s size: with a capacity of 105 but only 47 pupils, it is significantly undersubscribed, which may reflect its rural location or local competition.
