About St Faiths CofE Primary School

St Faiths CofE Primary School in Broadland was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, a rating it has held consistently across both its graded and ungraded inspections. The school’s most telling exam metric comes from Key Stage 2 results for the 2023/24 academic year: 50% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits just below the Norfolk local authority average of 52%, placing the school 27th out of 35 primary schools in Broadland and in the bottom half nationally. While the combined headline figure is modest, individual subject results tell a more nuanced story. In reading, 81% of pupils reached the expected standard and 31% achieved a higher score, while maths saw 81% at expected and 25% at a higher level. Writing proved more challenging, with only 50% meeting expectations and just 6% reaching the higher threshold. The average scaled scores of 106 in reading and 105 in maths are both above the national benchmark of 100.
