192nd 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 the 3,905 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.5/10 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) 2024/25 | 43.0 · 11 | 40% | 0.42 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 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.

What Ofsted said about Hundon Community Primary School
Overview
Hundon Community Primary School has taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection. Pupils enjoy attending this small, welcoming school where positive relationships create a supportive learning environment. The school continues to provide a broad and interesting curriculum that helps pupils achieve well and prepares them confidently for their next educational stage.
Strengths
- Staff have high expectations, and pupils respond with positive behaviour, working diligently to demonstrate a strong commitment to learning.
- The curriculum is well-designed for mixed-age classes, with staff possessing secure subject knowledge and explaining new concepts clearly.
- Early years provision is strong, with a significant emphasis on developing language, communication, and mathematical skills.
- Reading is a high priority; pupils read from a wide range of books and receive effective support, enabling them to leave with fluency and confidence.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities have their needs identified effectively and achieve well, progressing in line with their peers.
Areas to improve
- In some subjects, teachers do not always use assessment information effectively to identify what pupils already know or what needs revisiting.
- This limits pupils’ ability to make meaningful connections between previous and current learning, slowing their progress through the curriculum in these specific areas.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
