Woodseaves CE Primary Academy

School overview

Woodseaves CE Primary Academy is a primary school serving Staffordshire, classified by the DfE as a converter academy with a Church of England religious character. It has 79 pupils aged 3 to 11 on roll. At its most recent graded inspection, Ofsted rated Woodseaves CE Primary Academy 'Good'. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 78% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. That is down 22.0 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 in the top 20% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 110 in reading and 107 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 11% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Woodseaves CE Primary Academy was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 11 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 2.9%. There are about 19.3 pupils per teacher. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
