About Litcham School
Litcham School was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022, a rating it has held consistently across both its graded inspections. The school's Progress 8 score of -0.29, however, tells a more nuanced story. This places the school in the bottom 50 nationally, ranking 2219 out of 3141 schools. Within the East of England, it sits at 253rd out of 350, and in the Breckland local authority, it ranks 5th out of 8 schools. Compared with the Norfolk local authority average Progress 8 score of -0.02, Litcham's score is notably below par. The school's Attainment 8 score stands at 43.2, and 61.2% of pupils achieved a grade 4 or above in English and maths, though this drops to 37.2% at the stronger grade 5 or above threshold. The English Baccalaureate entry rate is 52.7%, with 33.3% achieving a grade 4 or above across the EBacc subjects.
