About Morley Memorial Primary School

Morley Memorial Primary School in Cambridge holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained consistently across its two most recent graded inspections. The school’s most recent ungraded inspection in February 2024 confirmed it remains Good, with leadership and management also rated Good. For a clearer picture of academic outcomes, the most telling metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2. In the 2023/24 results, 68% of Morley’s Year 6 pupils achieved this benchmark, which is ten percentage points above the Cambridgeshire local authority average of 58%. That places the school 11th out of 26 primary schools in Cambridge, and within the top 50% nationally. It’s a solid, above-average performance that suggests the school is delivering consistently for most of its pupils, even if it isn’t among the very highest-performing schools in the area.
