Woodland View Junior School
About Woodland View Junior School
Woodland View Junior School in Broadland was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in October 2024, with inspectors awarding Good across all four graded categories: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management. This continues the school's track record of solid performance, as it also held a Good rating in its previous inspection back in 2015. However, the most telling academic metric is the Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard, where just 36% of pupils met the benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure sits well below the Norfolk local authority average of 52%, placing Woodland View in the bottom half of schools nationally and 32nd out of 35 schools in Broadland. Only 3% of pupils reached the higher standard in maths, and none did so in writing, though reading fared better with 12% reaching the higher threshold.
