About English Martyrs' Catholic Voluntary Academy

English Martyrs' Catholic Voluntary Academy, a state primary in Rutland, performs above the local authority average on the key measure of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. In the 2023/24 academic year, 72% of its Year 6 pupils achieved that benchmark, compared with a Rutland average of 70%. That places the school 8th out of 17 primaries in the county, putting it in the middle of the pack but ahead of the typical local result. The school is also notably strong in maths, where 92% of pupils met the expected standard and 48% reached the higher standard, with an average scaled score of 110. Reading and writing expected rates were 84% and 88% respectively, though the proportion reaching the higher standard in those subjects was lower, at 52% for reading and just 8% for writing. Overall, the school's results suggest solid, above-average core provision, particularly in mathematics, without being among the very top performers in the area.
