Broughton Primary School
Kettering, NN14 1NB · North Northamptonshire · primary school
8th of 91 primary schools in North Northamptonshire we can score, 111 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 8.0/10 against 3,799 of them, against 8.4/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 | 87.0 · 96 | 40% | 3.82 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 10.0 · 66 | 25% | 1.65 |
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, 87.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 10.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2026. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (8.0 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.4 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Hotshots, Gymnastics, Choir, and Football, or take Music Lessons. Trips include Frontier Camp and Longtown. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 200 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving 10 spare places. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the transition for new starters when places are this limited? What specific support is offered to the 10% of pupils aiming for the higher standard? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support daily routines?
