Histon and Impington Brook Primary School

School overview

Histon and Impington Brook Primary School is a primary school serving Cambridgeshire, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. It has 376 pupils aged 4 to 11 on roll. 90% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well above the national average (national figure: 61%). Performance is little changed year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 3% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 111 in reading and 111 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 24% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Histon and Impington Brook Primary School is oversubscribed: about 9 in 10 of the families who made it their first choice were offered a Reception place for September 2026, with 69 first choices for 60 places. In 2026 the furthest child offered a place lived 2.80 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 4.6%. There are about 14.8 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 10% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Histon and Impington Brook 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.
