About Burnham-on-Crouch Primary School
Burnham-on-Crouch Primary School is a primary school in Burnham-on-Crouch, Essex, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 420 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. 73% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 10.0 percentage points compared with the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 15% of primary schools in England.
Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 108 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 17% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Burnham-on-Crouch Primary School is oversubscribed: about 8 in 10 of the families who made it their first choice were offered a Reception place for September 2026, with 73 first choices for 60 places. In 2025 the furthest child offered a place lived 0.77 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 5.7%. There are about 19.3 pupils per teacher. Burnham-on-Crouch 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. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
