About Alpington and Bergh Apton Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School
Alpington and Bergh Apton Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School holds an Outstanding rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections. In its January 2025 inspection, the school received Outstanding in every category assessed, including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision. The most telling exam metric comes from Key Stage 2 results for the 2023/24 academic year: 87% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits well above the Norfolk local authority average of 52% for the same measure. The school also ranks 4th out of 54 primary schools in the South Norfolk area, placing it in the top 5% locally and the top 4% nationally.
