About Tickenham Church of England Primary School

Tickenham Church of England Primary School is a primary school in Clevedon, North Somerset, classified by the DfE as a sponsor-led academy with a Church of England religious character. Around 89 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 88% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 6.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on 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 among the top 3% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 110 in reading and 108 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 25% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Tickenham Church of England Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 14 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 5.8%. There are about 19.3 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 2% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Tickenham Church of England Primary 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. 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.
