Watton Junior School at a glance

Located in Thetford, Norfolk, Watton Junior School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as an academy sponsor led. The school educates roughly 299 pupils aged 7 to 11. 31% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well below the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has risen by 14.0 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.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 100 in reading and 99 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 1% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Watton Junior 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.
