Nearest schools
| School | Phase | Ages | Distance | Inspection | Exam results |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cutteslowe Primary School | Primary | 3–11 | 230 m | Good (Mar 2020, overall grade under the previous framework) | 60% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 16% at the higher standard (2025; 62% in 2024 and 59% in 2023) |
| Wolvercote Primary School | Primary | 3–11 | 1.3 km (0.8 miles) | No published inspection | 86% at the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, 9% at the higher standard (2025; 80% in 2024 and 87% in 2023) |
| The Cherwell School | Secondary | 11–18 | 1.5 km (1 mile) | Outstanding (Oct 2022, overall grade under the previous framework) | GCSE 2026 (provisional): Attainment 8 58.9 (58.3 in 2025 and 58.4 in 2024); 64.9% grade 5+ in English and maths A level 2025: average grade B; 34.3% AAB or better; progress above average |
Exam results are from the Department for Education's school performance tables (Explore Education Statistics, Open Government Licence), for all pupils at each school. The middle school in England had 63% at the expected standard at the end of primary school (2025), Attainment 8 of 46.0 at GCSE (2026) and an A level average of C+ (2025). Attainment 8 adds up a pupil's grades in eight GCSEs, with English and maths counted twice (90 is the most), averaged over the school's pupils. Progress 8 compares pupils with others who had the same results at the end of primary school; it is not published for GCSEs in 2025 and 2026, as those pupils sat no primary tests during the pandemic. Small year groups swing from year to year, and figures for very small ones are withheld.

What this page cannot tell you
- Whether a particular house is at risk of flooding, subsiding or anything else: the flood map is a model of areas and there is no property-level data here.
- What a home is worth now: sales are historic prices for the homes that happened to sell.
- How safe the street is: crime points are moved to anonymised locations and many crimes are never reported; road collisions count only those in which someone was hurt and the police were told.
- Whether you would get a place at a school: distances are straight lines, not catchments.
- Who lives on the street now: census figures describe the small areas around it in March 2021, during a lockdown.
- How long a journey takes or how often anything runs: transport distances are straight lines to the nearest stops.
- Whether a GP practice is taking new patients, or a dentist new NHS patients.
- How loud a home is inside, or noise from industry, neighbours or smaller airfields: noise figures are models of road, rail and air traffic outside.
How each figure on this page is matched to the street and worked out: methodology.
