St Wenn School

School overview

St Wenn School is a primary school serving Bodmin, Cornwall, classified by the DfE as a foundation school. It has 67 pupils aged 3 to 11 on roll. 57% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, broadly in line with the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has risen by 35.0 percentage points year on year, though small year groups can make these figures swing sharply from year to year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 105 in reading and 102 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made St Wenn School their first choice was offered one of its 10 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 7.0%. There are about 13.4 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 9% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. St Wenn School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected.
