Crick Primary School at a glance

Located in West Northamptonshire, Crick Primary School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as a community school. The school educates roughly 193 pupils aged 4 to 11. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 39% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well below the national average of 61%. That is down 27.0 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 lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 103 in reading and 103 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Crick Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 20 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 4.6%. There are about 21.4 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 6% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Crick 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.
