Writtle Junior School
About Writtle Junior School
Writtle Junior School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a rating it first achieved in its graded inspection in 2013 and which was confirmed as still accurate in an ungraded inspection in July 2023. This represents a clear improvement from its previous inspection in 2011, when the school was judged to Require Improvement overall, with leadership and management also at that level. The school’s most informative exam metric is the Key Stage 2 SATs results, though the data does not provide Writtle’s own percentage of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. For context, the Essex local authority average for this measure is 62%, which gives parents a useful benchmark when considering the school’s academic standing alongside its Good Ofsted rating.
