Ages 3–9

Key Stage 2 performance

Braywood CofE First School is a first school for pupils aged 3–9. Pupils move on to a separate junior or middle school before Year 6, so the school does not enter pupils for the Key Stage 2 SATs and has no KS2 results to publish.

This applies to every first school in England — it does not mean data is missing. Ofsted judgements and school information are shown below.

Red dashed line = one first choice per place. How to read this

The cut-off distance is how far the last child offered a place lived, not a catchment boundary: it moves every year with the number of applicants. Published by the council in its 2025 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it. In 2026 the school was not oversubscribed, so no distance limit applied.

About Braywood CofE First School

Braywood CofE First School is a primary school in Windsor and Maidenhead, classified by the DfE as a voluntary controlled school with a Church of England religious character. Around 114 pupils aged 3 to 9 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted.

Braywood CofE First School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 11 families who put it first were offered a place. The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2025 lived 4.41 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 4.2%. There are about 19.1 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 1% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. When comparing schools, it is still worth visiting in person to see whether the atmosphere and approach suit your child. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
