Check the area around this school
30th of 49 primary schools in Haringey we can score, 60 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 — 6.0/10 against 4,298 of them, against 6.4/10 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 | 65.0 · 52 | 41% | 2.11 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 34% | 1.77 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 15.0 · 84 | 25% | 2.13 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Belmont Junior School
Overview
Pupils are described as happy, safe, and respectful, with a strong inclusive culture that supports those with special educational needs and/or disabilities. Leaders maintain high ambitions for all pupils, ensuring a calm learning environment where students are engaged and focused. The school provides a wide range of clubs and opportunities for personal development, fostering a sense of self-expression and community.
Strengths
- Pupils behave well in lessons, showing "high levels of respect" and enjoying learning.
- A "strong, inclusive culture" ensures pupils with SEND receive individualised support and make good progress.
- The curriculum is "clearly planned and builds sequentially," helping pupils retain knowledge in subjects like history, mathematics, and art.
- Staff feel "listened to and valued," with positive feedback regarding support for their well-being and workload.
- Reading is promoted through careful story selection, with effective catch-up programmes for those needing extra help.
Areas to improve
- In geography, mapping skills are not taught in sufficient detail; leaders must clearly identify what pupils need to know to read maps and sequence this knowledge.
- Phonics training is inconsistent within the classroom; more training is required for all staff to ensure uniformity in delivering the phonics scheme.
- Leaders must ensure sufficient oversight of policy and practice across all areas to mitigate slippage following considerable disruption within leadership staffing.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with a strong culture where leaders and staff are vigilant, receive regular training, and work well with agencies to support pupils and families.
