About Fakenham Junior School

Fakenham Junior School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit comfortably above the Norfolk local authority average for primary schools. The school achieved a combined reading, writing and maths expected standard score of 59 per cent in the 2023/24 academic year, compared with the LA average of 52 per cent. That seven-point gap places it in the top half of schools nationally, at the 60th percentile, and within the top third of schools in North Norfolk, where it ranks 10th out of 30. While the proportion of pupils reaching the higher standard in reading, writing and maths combined is low at just 2 per cent, individual subject scores tell a more nuanced story. Reading stands out as a particular strength: 78 per cent of pupils met the expected standard and 21 per cent reached the higher standard, with an average scaled score of 105. Maths is also solid, with 72 per cent at the expected level and an average score of 103. Writing lags a little behind, with 67 per cent at the expected level and only 2 per cent at the higher standard.
