About Hampstead Norreys C.E. Primary School

Hampstead Norreys C.E. Primary School is a primary school in Thatcham, West Berkshire, classified by the DfE as a voluntary controlled school with a Church of England religious character. Around 52 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 70% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above the national average of 61%. That is down 10.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year, though small year groups can make these figures swing sharply from year to year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 32% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 108 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 10% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Hampstead Norreys C.E. Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 3 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 5.1%. There are about 10.4 pupils per teacher. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
