Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
6.0/10 Broadly average

31st 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 — 6.8/10 against 3,769 of them, against 6.5/10 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.

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
