Avenue Junior School
Norwich, NR2 3HP · Norfolk · primary school
102nd of 283 primary schools in Norfolk we can score, 344 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to the 3,954 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.3/10 among them, against 3.9/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 61.0 · 41 | 40% | 1.66 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 4.0 · 35 | 25% | 0.88 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 61.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 4.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in December 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.3 out of 10 among them, against 3.9 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Rubix Cube, Debating, and Film clubs, play football, korfball, netball, multi-skills, tag rugby, or yoga, and participate in choir, orchestra, wind band, or string group. There is no breakfast or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 466 pupils in a capacity of 480, leaving 14 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What specific steps are taken to raise the percentage of students reaching the higher standard? How does the school manage the competitive nature of admissions with only 14 places remaining?
