Great and Little Shelford CofE (Aided) Primary School

About Great and Little Shelford CofE (Aided) Primary School

Great and Little Shelford CofE (Aided) Primary School sits in a curious position relative to other Cambridgeshire primaries. Its headline metric — the percentage of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths — comes in at 52%, which is six percentage points below the local authority average of 58%. That places the school 137th out of 210 primaries in the county, and in the bottom half nationally. But the picture is more nuanced than a single number suggests. In reading, 70% of pupils met the expected standard and the average scaled score was 105; in maths, 67% hit the expected mark with an average score of 104. Those are solid, middle-of-the-road results. The real drag comes from writing, where only 67% reached the expected level and just 4% achieved a higher standard. So while the school isn't outperforming its neighbours, it's not dramatically underperforming either — it's a broadly average performer with a specific weakness in writing.
