About Noremarsh Junior School

Noremarsh Junior School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit below the Wiltshire average, with 54% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to the local authority average of 58%. That places the school 96th out of 159 primary schools in Wiltshire, putting it in the bottom half of the county. The picture is mixed when you look at individual subjects: 72% hit the expected level in both reading and writing, and 69% did so in maths, but only 7% reached the higher standard across all three subjects. Reading scores were a bit stronger, with an average scaled score of 105 and 26% achieving the higher standard, while maths averaged 103 and just 10% reached the higher threshold. So while the school isn’t struggling, it’s not outperforming its neighbours either — it’s a solid, mid-table performer that parents might want to investigate further if they’re aiming for top-tier results.
