About Queen Eleanor Primary Academy

Queen Eleanor Primary Academy sits within the West Northamptonshire local authority, a mixed state primary for children aged 3 to 11. In the most recent local rankings of similar schools, it placed 86th out of 134, placing it in the bottom half of the authority. The top-performing peers in the area include Helmdon Primary School, Greatworth Primary School, and The Bramptons Primary School, all of which achieved higher ranking scores.

Queen Eleanor itself was rated Good in its most recent graded inspection in 2017, and an ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed the school remains Good.
