Beeston Primary School
King's Lynn, PE32 2NQ · Norfolk · primary school
204th 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 3,030 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.3/10 among them, against 1.1/10 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) 2023/24 | 43.0 · 11 | 40% | 0.43 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2023/24 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
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 2023/24, 43.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 63%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. The school is rated Good by Ofsted, following an inspection in January 2025. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.3 out of 10 among them, against 1.1 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Early Starters and Teatime Club, or participate in sports including dodgeball, bench ball, handball, gymnastics, tag rugby, rounders, netball, and dance. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 65 pupils in a capacity of 80 places, leaving 15 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to move from the expected standard to the higher standard? What specific activities are included in the Early Starters and Teatime Club sessions? How does the current class size affect individual attention during lessons?
