Check the area around this school
140th of 197 primary schools in Cambridgeshire we can score, 210 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 3,670 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.6/10 among them, against 2.4/10 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 | 48.0 · 16 | 40% | 0.65 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| 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.

What Ofsted said about Eynesbury CofE C Primary School
Overview
Eynesbury C of E C Primary School continues to be a good school, offering a welcoming environment where pupils from all faiths and none feel valued. The report highlights a caring community with kind relationships between staff and pupils, who demonstrate polite conduct and take pride in their learning.
Strengths
- The curriculum is "ambitious and varied," well sequenced from early years, with teachers effectively checking learning to "iron out any misconceptions."
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are supported well, ensuring they learn the "same ambitious curriculum as their classmates."
- Reading is prioritised with confident phonics teaching; "most pupils know how to read by the end of Year 1" and enjoy high-quality texts.
- The school provides "exceptional opportunities for pupils’ wider development," including trips and visitors that broaden knowledge of life beyond their locality.
- Staff morale is high due to a "supportive environment" created by leaders, and governors perform their statutory duties well.
Areas to improve
- Staff do not always push pupils to their next steps soon enough when they have a secure grasp of a concept, which "holds pupils back sometimes."
- Occasionally, a few pupils do not pay close attention in lessons, resulting in slower work starts and less achievement than they could reach.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with a strong culture where pupils talk confidently about staying safe in various situations.
