Ofsted: Good · 2025 Inspected 1 year ago Mixed Primary Church of England
5.4/10 Broadly average

39th of 63 primary schools in Lewisham we can score, 64 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Narrow the comparison to the 4,205 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.4/10 among them, against 5.5/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
