About Ocean Academy Poole

Ocean Academy Poole is a primary school in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole, classified by the DfE as a sponsor-led academy. Around 348 pupils aged 7 to 11 attend the school. 68% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, above the national average (national figure: 61%). Performance is little changed year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 26% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 14% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Overall pupil absence was 4.9%. There are about 19.8 pupils per teacher. Ocean Academy Poole 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 above.
