About Bildeston Primary School

Bildeston Primary School’s Key Stage 2 results sit comfortably above the Suffolk local authority average, a clear signal for parents weighing up their options. In its most recent published data, 67% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a county average of 58%. That nine-point gap is meaningful, and it’s backed by strong individual subject scores: 83% hit the expected level in reading, 75% in maths, and 67% in writing. Reading and maths average scaled scores of 110 and 108 respectively are both above the national benchmark of 100. The school also pushes pupils further, with 17% achieving the higher standard across all three subjects. In the Babergh district, this places Bildeston 14th out of 34 primary schools, and nationally it sits in the top 40% of all primaries. For a small village school with just 119 pupils, these are solid, reliable results that suggest consistent teaching rather than flash-in-the-pan performance.
