The Galfrid School

About The Galfrid School

The Galfrid School is a state primary in Cambridge, part of the Cambridgeshire local authority, and sits 16th out of 26 primary schools in the Cambridge district according to its ranking based on Key Stage 2 expected standards. That places it in the middle of the local pack, behind the top-performing peers in the area such as Histon and Impington Brook Primary School, Caldecote Primary School, and Abbots Ripton CofE Primary School, all of which score higher on the same metric. Across the wider Cambridgeshire authority, where only five primaries hold an Outstanding rating from Ofsted, Galfrid ranks 80th out of 210 schools of its type. The nearest Outstanding-rated school is the University of Cambridge Primary School, about 4.8 kilometres away. Galfrid itself was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in October 2023, a significant improvement from its previous inspection in December 2017, when it was judged Inadequate overall. Under headteacher Claire Macfie, the school now receives Good marks across all five inspected categories, including behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision.
