About Burbage Primary School

Burbage Primary School sits comfortably above the Wiltshire local authority average for its key stage 2 headline metric, with 64% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined against a county average of 58%. That six-percentage-point gap places the school in the top half of Wiltshire primaries, ranked 57th out of 159 schools on this measure. The school also outperforms the LA norm on individual subjects: 88% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, 72% in maths and 72% in writing. At the higher standard, 28% achieved that level in reading, 16% in writing and 12% in maths, though only 4% hit the higher threshold across all three subjects. These results suggest a school that reliably delivers solid, above-average outcomes for its pupils without being among the very highest-performing in the county.
