Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
7.7/10 Above average

11th 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 2,728 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.5/10 among them, against 9.0/10 nationally. 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 83.0 · 92 40% 3.67

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, 83.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. A further 17.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.5 out of 10 among them, against 9.0 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. A breakfast club is available for pupils.

Getting in. The school has 55 pupils in a building with 77 places, leaving 22 spare spots. 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 do not reach the higher standard? What are the plans for the 22 spare places? How does the breakfast club integrate with the morning routine?
