Castle Hill Primary School
Chessington, KT9 1JE · Kingston upon Thames · primary school
24th of 28 primary schools in Kingston upon Thames we can score, 35 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 3,660 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.3/10 among them, against 3.8/10 nationally. 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 | 56.0 · 30 | 62% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 7.0 · 51 | 38% | 1.96 |
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, 56.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.3 out of 10 among them, against 3.8 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Lego, Mindfulness, Comics Club, Little Fashion Designers, Lighthouse Lunchtime Bible Club, Lions Pack, Little Architects, Puzzles and Games, Cricket, Netball, Football, Rounders, Yoga, Kickboxing/Boxing club, Choir, and Musical Theatre & Dance. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 523 pupils in a school with 445 places, over capacity by 78. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the high demand for places given it is over capacity? What specific support is offered to pupils who are below the expected standard in maths? How are the various clubs and sports scheduled to ensure all pupils can participate?
