About Mayfield Primary School

Mayfield Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 metric sits just a notch above the Cambridgeshire average. The proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 60%, compared with the local authority average of 58% for primary schools of the same type. That places Mayfield 101st out of 210 schools in the county, squarely in the middle third. It is not one of the five outstanding primaries in Cambridgeshire, and the nearest school with that top rating, University of Cambridge Primary School, is only 1.3 kilometres away. But Mayfield’s own Ofsted rating is Good, a grade it has held across both its most recent inspections. The most recent was an ungraded visit in 2023 that confirmed the school remains Good, and the previous graded inspection in 2017 also awarded Good overall, with Good for leadership and management, early years provision, and quality of education.
