St Anne Line Catholic Junior School
About St Anne Line Catholic Junior School
St Anne Line Catholic Junior School in Basildon is a standout performer when you compare its headline Key Stage 2 results to the local authority average. In the 2023/24 academic year, 83% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which is a full 21 percentage points above the Essex average of 62% for primary schools. That gap is significant and places the school third out of 39 primary schools in the Basildon area, comfortably inside the top 10% nationally. The school also punches well above its weight on the higher standard: 16% of pupils achieved that top tier in all three subjects. With 250 pupils on roll and capacity for 256, it is nearly full, and its Roman Catholic character gives it a distinct identity within the local state primary landscape.
