About Garboldisham Church of England Primary Academy

Garboldisham Church of England Primary Academy has undergone a remarkable turnaround, earning a Good overall rating from Ofsted in its most recent 2023 inspection after being judged Inadequate in 2019. The school now achieves Outstanding marks across four of the five inspection categories: behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. On the core academic metric of Key Stage 2 reading, writing and maths combined at the expected standard, 58% of pupils met this benchmark in 2023/24. That places the school above the Norfolk local authority average of 52%, and ranks it 12th out of 43 primary schools in the Breckland area. While the proportion reaching the higher standard in all three subjects is just 8%, individual subject results tell a stronger story: 83% of pupils achieved the expected standard in both reading and maths, with average scaled scores of 106 in each. Writing is the relative weak point, with 58% reaching the expected level and only 8% hitting the higher standard.
