Waverley Abbey CofE Junior School
About Waverley Abbey CofE Junior School
Waverley Abbey CofE Junior School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections, with the latest ungraded visit in October 2024 noting that the school has improved significantly since its previous graded inspection. The most telling academic metric for this junior school is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2. In the 2023/24 academic year, 65% of Year 6 pupils achieved this benchmark, which sits just one percentage point below the Surrey local authority average of 66%. This places the school 15th out of 22 primary schools within the Waverley borough, and in the 45th percentile nationally. While the combined figure is solid, the school’s individual subject results tell a more nuanced story, with reading and maths scores that suggest particular strengths in those areas.
