About Scole Church of England Primary Academy

Scole Church of England Primary Academy holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent graded inspection in 2012 and its ungraded inspection in 2017. The school’s most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard attainment, which sits at 22 per cent. This is well below the Norfolk local authority average of 52 per cent for similar schools, and places Scole in the bottom 50 nationally for this measure. The school’s ranking within South Norfolk is 51st out of 54 primary schools, and it sits in the 94th percentile regionally. While the cohort is small — just 38 pupils on roll — the data suggests that the majority of children are not reaching the expected benchmark in all three core subjects by the end of Year 6.
