Hapton Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School
Norwich, NR15 1AD · Norfolk · primary school
205th 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 3.8/10 against 2,183 of them, against 3.3/10 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 | 29.0 · 2 | 40% | 0.10 |
| Ofsted | 9 | 35% | 0.32 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2023/24 | 14.0 · 81 | 25% | 2.03 |
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, 29.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 63%. Only 14.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in April 2026. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (3.8 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.3 out of 10 against all schools).
Getting in. The school has 18 pupils in a capacity of 42 places, leaving 24 spare places. 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 who are below the expected standard in literacy? What specific actions are being taken to address the "Requires improvement" rating? How do you ensure engagement for children in such small class sizes?
