Clements Primary Academy
About Clements Primary Academy
If you compare Clements Primary Academy against the Suffolk local authority average for Key Stage 2, the picture is mixed. The LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 58 per cent, while Clements sits at 51 per cent, putting it below the county norm. However, the school’s average scaled scores in reading and maths both come in at 106, which is above the national benchmark of 100, suggesting that while fewer children hit the combined threshold, those who do are performing solidly. The school ranks 150th out of 253 primary schools in Suffolk, placing it in the bottom half of the LA, and 34th out of 44 schools in West Suffolk specifically. That said, the school has held a Good rating from Ofsted since at least 2014, and its most recent inspection in 2021 awarded Good across every category, including behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision.
