Braishfield Primary School
About Braishfield Primary School
Braishfield Primary School sits in a mixed position when compared with the Hampshire local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes. While the LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 61%, Braishfield’s figure is 53% — eight percentage points below the benchmark. However, the school’s average scores in both reading and maths are 105, which is exactly in line with the national expectation of 100, suggesting that while fewer children are hitting the combined threshold, those who do are performing solidly. The school’s ranking within Test Valley is 27th out of 40 primary schools, placing it in the bottom half of its immediate area. Nationally, it sits in the 73rd percentile, meaning roughly a quarter of primary schools rank lower. This is a small village school with just 102 pupils and a capacity of 105, so cohort sizes are tiny — a single year group’s results can shift the percentages significantly.
