About Dunbury Church of England Academy

Dunbury Church of England Academy is a primary school in Winterborne Whitechurch, Dorset, classified by the DfE as an academy sponsor led with a Church of England religious character. Around 113 pupils aged 2 to 11 attend the school. 45% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well below the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 13.0 percentage points compared with the previous 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 103 in reading and 100 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 9% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Dunbury Church of England Academy 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. 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 further down the page.
