About Scarning Voluntary Controlled Primary School

Scarning Voluntary Controlled Primary School is a primary school in Dereham, Norfolk, classified by the DfE as a voluntary controlled school. Around 404 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. 57% 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 risen by 7.0 percentage points year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Scarning Voluntary Controlled 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 further down the page.
