Bramfield Church of England Primary School

Halesworth, IP19 9HZ · Suffolk · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2025 Inspected 1 year ago Mixed Primary Church of England
5.2/10 Broadly average

86th of 232 primary schools in Suffolk we can score, 253 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 5.8/10 against 2,753 of them, against 5.2/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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, 75.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The school achieved a 0.0% rate for the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in March 2025. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (5.8 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.2 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils visit Framlingham Castle, Sutton Hoo, and Flixton. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 95 pupils in a capacity of 105 places, leaving 10 spare spots. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What provision exists for children arriving late or leaving early, given the lack of wraparound care? How does the school maintain its Good rating following the 2025 inspection?
