Beaumont Primary School
Purley, CR8 4DN · Croydon · primary school
1st of 77 primary schools in Croydon we can score, 87 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 9.9/10 against 3,926 of them, against 9.8/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 90.0 · 98 | 40% | 3.90 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 34.0 · 99 | 25% | 2.48 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 90.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 34.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in March 2025. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (9.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.8 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs for Ballet, Dance, Crafts & Kindness, Cooking, Lego, Multi Skills, and Palace4Life Tennis, and play Netball. Trips include MM Productions, Sublime Science Week, Animal Day, Gatton Park, the Unicorn Theatre, a Magical Toy workshop, St Barnabas Church, and Pizza Express. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 222 pupils in a school with 222 places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage admissions when demand exceeds the 222 available places? What support is offered to pupils who arrive without a morning routine, given the absence of a breakfast club? How does the curriculum balance the wide range of extracurricular trips with core academic preparation?
