About Sunningwell Church of England Primary School

Sunningwell Church of England Primary School is a primary school in Oxon, Oxfordshire, classified by the DfE as a voluntary controlled school with a Church of England religious character. Around 74 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. 100% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has risen by 30.0 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 among the top 5% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 108 in reading and 106 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 13% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Sunningwell Church of England Primary School is oversubscribed: about 9 in 10 of the families who made it their first choice were offered a Reception place for September 2026, with 16 first choices for 15 places. Overall pupil absence was 6.6%. There are about 14.5 pupils per teacher.
