About Weeting Church of England Primary School

Weeting Church of England Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit well below the Norfolk local authority average, which is a significant point for parents to weigh up. Just 19% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined in the 2023/24 assessments, compared with a county average of 52%. That places the school in the bottom 50 nationally for this metric, and 256th out of 344 primary schools in Norfolk. The picture is similarly stark in individual subjects: only 38% reached the expected level in maths and writing, and 44% in reading. No pupils achieved the higher standard in maths or writing, though 19% did so in reading. The school’s average maths scaled score was 96, while reading came in at 102. These figures suggest that while some children are reading well, overall academic attainment is a clear area of challenge.
