Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Expected standard Mixed Primary Church of England
2.9/10 Below average

182nd 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.

Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 4.1/10 against 2,829 of them, against 3.9/10 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.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 57.0 · 32 40% 1.29
Ofsted 9 35% 0.32

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, 57.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared with the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in May 2026. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (4.1 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.9 out of 10 against all schools).

Getting in. The school has 85 pupils in a building with 150 places, leaving 65 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 plan to raise attainment to the national median? What specific actions are being taken following the 2026 inspection? How do class sizes affect individual pupil support?
