About Fritchley CofE (Aided) Primary & Nursery School

Fritchley CofE (Aided) Primary & Nursery School is a primary school in Belper, Derbyshire, classified by the DfE as a voluntary aided school with a Church of England religious character. Around 102 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 60% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — broadly in line with the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 24.0 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 lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 105 in reading and 103 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Fritchley CofE (Aided) Primary & Nursery School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 13 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 6.1%.
