About Abbeys Primary School

Abbeys Primary School sits comfortably above the local authority average for Key Stage 2 performance, with 68% of its pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with 62% across Milton Keynes as a whole. That six-point gap places the school 15th out of 54 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the top third locally. It is worth noting, however, that the school is some distance from the very top performers: the nearest Outstanding-rated school, Caroline Haslett Primary, is just 2.3 km away and achieved a ranking score of 92 against Abbeys' 68. Still, for a school where nearly a third of pupils (31.4%) are eligible for free school meals, these results suggest solid value-add from the teaching staff.
