Abbots Farm Junior School
About Abbots Farm Junior School
Abbots Farm Junior School sits in the Warwickshire local authority, in the Rugby borough, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025 judged it as Requires Improvement overall, though the inspection was a graded one and the overall effectiveness was marked as 'Not judged'. This places it among a minority of schools in the authority that are not rated Good or Outstanding; Warwickshire has 12 Outstanding primary schools out of 196 total. In the local context, the school ranks 21st out of 28 primary schools in Rugby on the KS2 reading, writing and maths expected standard metric, putting it in the bottom half of its immediate area. The top-performing peers in the same LA include Mappleborough Green CofE Primary School and St Mary's Catholic Primary School, both with a perfect ranking score of 100, and Barford St Peter's CofE Primary School at 93. For families considering alternatives, the nearest Outstanding-rated school is Eastlands Primary School, just 0. 7 kilometres away.
