About Cabot Primary School

Cabot Primary School sits in the middle of the pack in Bristol when it comes to Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 56% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure is just two percentage points below the local authority average of 58% for primary schools, placing it 46th out of 101 schools in the city. For a school where just over half of pupils are eligible for free school meals, that is a solid, unflashy result. It is not among the top performers — the LA’s best, like Summerhill Academy and Westbury Park School, score in the 90s — but it is comfortably within the mainstream, outperforming many schools with similar intakes. The school’s national ranking places it in the bottom half of all primaries, but that context matters less when you look at what it achieves with its cohort.
