Central Park Primary School
London, E6 3DW · Newham · primary school
33rd of 63 primary schools in Newham we can score, 68 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 9.5/10 against 2,281 of them, against 8.6/10 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 | 76.0 · 80 | 40% | 3.19 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 23.0 · 95 | 25% | 2.37 |
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, 76.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 23.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.5 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.6 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join the Food Tech Club, play in the Newham Football League, and sing with Young Voices. Trips include visits to the East Ham Fire Station, St Paul's Cathedral, the Imperial War Museum, and the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 879 pupils in a building with 840 places, meaning it is over capacity by 39. This means places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 39 more pupils than its stated capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who have not yet reached the expected standard? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support families?
