About Braybrook Primary Academy

Braybrook Primary Academy’s headline metrics place it slightly below the Peterborough local authority average for primary schools. While the LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths (RWM) at Key Stage 2 sits at 59%, Braybrook achieves 57%. That’s a narrow gap of just two percentage points, and it’s worth noting that the school’s maths results are a relative strength: 80% of pupils hit the expected standard in maths, compared with 63% in reading and 73% in writing. The school ranks 29th out of 53 primary schools in Peterborough, placing it in the bottom half of the LA table. Nationally, it sits in the 65th percentile, which is broadly middle-of-the-pack. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023 rated it Good across all five categories — a notable improvement from its 2017 inspection, when it was judged Requires Improvement overall.
