About Tortworth Primary School

Tortworth Primary School is a primary school in Wotton-under-Edge, South Gloucestershire, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. Around 69 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. 44% 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 risen by 34.0 percentage points year on 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 105 in reading and 103 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Tortworth Primary School their first choice was offered one of its 6 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 10.9%. There are about 16.9 pupils per teacher. Tortworth 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.
