About Glebeland Community Primary School

Glebeland Community Primary School’s Key Stage 2 results sit well below the Norfolk local authority average, which is a significant point for parents to weigh. In the 2023/24 academic year, just 11% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a county average of 52%. That places the school 264th out of 344 primary schools in Norfolk and in the bottom 50 nationally on this metric. The reading average score of 106 is a relative bright spot, with 22% of pupils achieving a higher standard in reading, but maths tells a different story: the average maths score is 101, and no pupil reached the higher standard. Writing is similarly low, with only 11% meeting the expected level. For a small school of just 18 pupils, these figures are volatile, but the gap to the LA average is stark and worth investigating further.
