Crich Church of England Infant School
About Crich Church of England Infant School
Crich Church of England Infant School was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, a rating it has held consistently across both its graded inspections. The school serves children from age five to seven, so it does not participate in Key Stage 2 SATs, which are taken at the end of primary school. Instead, the most informative academic metric available is the local authority average for Key Stage 2 attainment, which stands at 59 percent of pupils meeting the expected standard in reading, writing and maths across Derbyshire. While Crich’s own pupils are too young for that benchmark, the school’s small size — just 57 pupils against a capacity of 60 — and its Good rating across all five Ofsted categories, including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, and leadership and management, suggest a solid foundation for early learning. The school’s early years provision was also rated Good, which is particularly relevant for a school that takes children from Reception upwards.
