Cavalry Primary School

About Cavalry Primary School

Cavalry Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit slightly below the Cambridgeshire local authority average, but the gap is narrow. The proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 54%, compared with the LA average of 58%. That four-point difference places the school in the bottom half of primary schools in Fenland, where it ranks 12th out of 28. However, the picture is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects. In writing, 72% of pupils met the expected standard, and in reading it was 67% — both respectable figures. Maths sits at 66%. Where the school really struggles is at the higher standard: only 7% of pupils achieved the higher benchmark in reading, writing and maths combined, and just 7% did so in writing specifically. For a school with 28. 9% of pupils eligible for free school meals — well above the national average — these results are perhaps unsurprising, but they do suggest that stretching the most able pupils is an area for development.
