About The Curzon CofE Primary School

The Curzon CofE Primary School in Amber Valley posts a Key Stage 2 combined expected standard score of 71%, which is a clear twelve percentage points above the Derbyshire local authority average of 59% for primary schools. That gap is significant enough to put the school in the top half of all primaries in the area — it ranks 13th out of 43 schools in Amber Valley and sits in the top 30% nationally. The school is also oversubscribed, with 40 applications for 23 places in the 2025/26 admissions round, and 19 of those offers went to first-preference families. So the data suggests a school that is genuinely popular and delivering results above the norm for its local authority, which is a strong starting point for parents weighing up their options.
