About Nanpean Community Primary School

Nanpean Community Primary School is a primary school in St Austell, Cornwall, classified by the DfE as an academy converter. Around 114 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Requires improvement' judgement from Ofsted. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 29% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well below the national average of 61%. That is down 25.0 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 lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 95 in reading and 99 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 7% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally).
