About Annecy Catholic Primary School

Annecy Catholic Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit noticeably below the East Sussex local authority average, which is a key point for parents weighing up their options. In the 2023/24 academic year, just 30% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a local authority average of 59%. That gap is significant and places the school at the bottom of the Lewes district rankings — 23rd out of 23 primary schools. Nationally, it sits in the bottom 50% of schools on this metric. The school’s individual subject scores tell a similar story: 43% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, 50% in maths, and 60% in writing. Only 10% of pupils achieved the higher standard in reading or maths, and none did so in writing. These figures suggest that while the school may offer strengths elsewhere, its academic outcomes at the end of primary are an area of concern compared with other schools in the area.
