Barton CofE VA Primary School at a glance
Located in Cambridgeshire, Barton CofE VA Primary School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as a voluntary aided school with a Church of England religious character. The school educates roughly 121 pupils aged 4 to 11. 59% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, broadly in line with the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 1.0 percentage points compared with 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 38% of primary schools nationally.
Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 110 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 14% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). 93% of the families who made Barton CofE VA Primary School their first choice were offered a Reception place for September 2026, even though the school made at least as many offers as it had first choices - the rest withdrew, moved or fell outside a priority group. In 2026 the furthest child offered a place lived 4.08 miles from the school in a straight line, according to the council's published allocation figures; the distance changes every year with demand. Overall pupil absence was 3.4%. There are about 18.9 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 7% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Barton CofE VA Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected.
