About Bury CofE Primary School

Bury CofE Primary School is a primary school in Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, classified by the DfE as a converter academy with a Church of England religious character. Around 204 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 81% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 8.0 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 top 43% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 109 in reading and 106 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Bury CofE Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 27 families who put it first were offered a place. The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 3.07 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 4.2%. There are about 22.2 pupils per teacher. Bury CofE 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.
