About Tudor Church of England Primary School, Sudbury

Tudor Church of England Primary School in Sudbury sits well below the Suffolk local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with just 33% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined against a county average of 58%. That places the school in the bottom half of primary schools nationally, ranked 201st out of 253 similar schools in Suffolk. The individual subject scores tell a mixed story: reading and maths average scores are 102 and 101 respectively, which are close to the national benchmark of 100, but the proportion of pupils hitting the expected standard in reading (59%) and maths (52%) is notably higher than in writing (48%). Only 4% of pupils achieved the higher standard in maths, and none did so in writing. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in February 2024, an ungraded visit, confirmed it remains Good overall, a significant improvement from its previous graded inspection in 2018 when it was rated Inadequate.
