About Acle Church of England Primary Academy

Acle Church of England Primary Academy was rated Good in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection in 2015, and a subsequent ungraded inspection in 2019 confirmed the school remains Good. This marks a clear improvement from its previous inspection in 2013, when it was judged to require improvement. The most telling exam metric for this primary school is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stood at 41% in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure is notably below the Norfolk local authority average of 52%, placing the school 203rd out of 344 primary schools in the county. In the Broadland district specifically, it ranks 31st out of 35 schools on this measure, putting it in the bottom half of local primaries.
