About Great Binfields Primary School

Great Binfields Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained consistently across its two most recent inspections. In its 2022 graded inspection, inspectors awarded Good across every category, including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management. The early years provision also received a Good rating, having been judged Requires Improvement in the previous inspection in 2015. The school’s most informative exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2, which sits at 54%. This is below the Hampshire local authority average of 61%, placing Great Binfields 31st out of 40 primary schools in the Basingstoke and Deane area and in the bottom half nationally. The school’s ranking score of 54 reflects a solid but not standout academic profile, and parents considering the school will want to weigh this alongside its other strengths.
