About Erpingham Voluntary Controlled Church of England Primary School

If you're comparing Erpingham Voluntary Controlled Church of England Primary School against the Norfolk average for primary schools, the headline metrics stand out for all the wrong reasons. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, just 11% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a local authority average of 52%. That puts the school in the bottom 50 nationally and ranks it 29th out of 30 schools in North Norfolk. The reading scores are a relative bright spot — 89% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, and the average reading score of 107 is solid — but the picture in writing and maths is far more mixed. Only 22% reached the expected standard in writing, and 56% in maths. No pupils achieved the higher standard in any of the three subjects. These results sit alongside an Ofsted rating of Requires Improvement from its most recent graded inspection in October 2023, a downgrade from the Good rating it had held previously.
