About Newborough CofE Primary School

Newborough CofE Primary School sits below the Peterborough local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, where the LA average sits at 59. The school's most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023 rated it Requires Improvement overall, a rating that places it among the majority of primary schools in the authority — only four of the 60 primary schools in Peterborough are rated Outstanding. The school has held a Requires Improvement rating across both its recent inspections, with the previous inspection in 2019 also giving the same overall grade. That said, one area stands out: personal development was rated Good in the 2023 inspection, a step up from the previous inspection where it was also rated Good. This suggests the school is doing something right in supporting pupils' character and wellbeing, even if academic delivery still needs work.
