About Little Eaton Primary School

Little Eaton Primary School is a primary school in Derbyshire, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 186 pupils aged 5 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 67% 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. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 29% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 109 in reading and 106 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 13% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Little Eaton Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 20 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 4.2%. There are about 24.8 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 5% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Little Eaton 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.
