Best primary schools in Norfolk

283 of 345 primary schools ranked by Met expected standard (RWM) · all Norfolk schools · secondary schools

Ranked on Met expected standard (RWM), 2024/25 — the most recent year each school has published. Official data, not our opinion — but the ranking is only as good as the measure, and a single number never describes a school. We hold real catchment boundaries for 292 of them.

241 of 345 rated Good or Outstanding
30 oversubscribed on first preference
10 Good or better and undersubscribed — the overlooked ones
Median Met expected standard (RWM): 56.0% (best 96.0%)
