Barton Seagrave Primary School
About Barton Seagrave Primary School
Barton Seagrave Primary School sits right on the local authority average for the key KS2 benchmark, with 61% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — exactly matching the North Northamptonshire average for primary schools. That places it 46th out of 111 primaries in the area, squarely in the middle of the pack. But dig a little deeper and the picture becomes more nuanced. In reading, 82% of pupils hit the expected standard and 33% reached the higher standard, both comfortably above the maths equivalent of 77% and 20% respectively. The school’s average reading score of 106 also edges ahead of its maths average of 104. So while the headline metric is unremarkable against the LA, the school appears to be doing particularly well with reading outcomes, which may reflect a focused literacy strategy.
