Check the area around this 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 3,864 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.
Beaumont Primary School overview
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, against a national median of 7%. 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 can join Ballet, Dance, Crafts & Kindness, Cooking, Lego, Multi Skills, and Palace4Life Tennis clubs, play netball, and attend trips to MM Productions, Sublime Science Week, Animal Day, Gatton Park, Unicorn Theatre, Magical Toy workshop, St Barnabas Church, and Pizza Express. An after-school club is available.
Getting in
The published school roll is 222 pupils against a stated capacity of 222. These whole-school figures do not establish entry-year vacancies or the likelihood of an offer. Confirm entry-year availability and admissions criteria with the school or local authority.
Worth asking on a visit
How does the school manage class sizes when the roll is at full capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard? How are the various clubs and trips scheduled to avoid conflicts with core lessons?
