Martham Academy and Nursery
Great Yarmouth, NR29 4PR · Norfolk · primary school
206th 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 the 3,926 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.4/10 among them, against 0.9/10 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 | 41.0 · 9 | 40% | 0.36 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| 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.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 41.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.4 out of 10 among them, against 0.9 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join the Choir, Choral Society, Ukulele Groups, and Orchestra. Music lessons include cello, piano, keyboard, recorders, woodwind, and violin. The school hosts a Midsummer Concert, Expressive Arts sessions, and Annual Productions. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 334 pupils in a building with 420 places, leaving 86 spare places. This means 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 not reaching the expected standard in core subjects? What specific strategies are used to help students progress from the expected to the higher standard? How do the music and arts programmes integrate with the wider curriculum?
