Check the area around this school
58th of 61 primary schools in Greenwich we can score, 62 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 — 3.1/10 against 2,810 of them, against 3.2/10 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 | 48.0 · 16 | 40% | 0.65 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 8.0 · 57 | 25% | 1.43 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Charlton Manor Primary School overview
How it's doing
In 2024/25, 48.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. For the higher standard, 8.0% achieved it, against a national median of 7%. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (3.1 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.2 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Good in April 2023.
Beyond the classroom
Pupils can join Lego, cooking, and glee clubs, or play football, taekwondo, and gymnastics. Trips include Young Voices and Matilda, and an after-school club is available.
Getting in
The published school roll is 410 pupils against a stated capacity of 484. 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.

What Ofsted said about Charlton Manor Primary School
Overview
Charlton Manor Primary School continues to be a good school, with leaders having developed effective systems and a well-structured curriculum. Pupils are described as safe, happy, and responsive to high ambitions for their behaviour and learning, while parents speak positively about recent improvements.
Strengths
- The curriculum is organised in a "progressive and sequential way," ensuring pupils build knowledge and skills effectively as they progress.
- Leaders promote a "love of reading" through consistent phonics programmes, targeted support for fluency, and opportunities for older pupils to read with younger children.
- Staff ensure pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are identified quickly and receive ambitious, tailored support to access the full curriculum.
- Pupils make a positive contribution to school life, taking pride in responsibilities such as being sports captains and "well-being champions."
- Leaders have reduced staff workload and improved work-life balance by adjusting planning and assessment procedures.
Areas to improve
- Leaders should ensure teachers "deliver information clearly" in lessons, as some pupils are currently unclear about what they need to learn or do.
- Leaders must ensure all staff "check pupils’ understanding and address misconceptions" so that pupils are fully prepared for future learning, rather than moving on before understanding is secure.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with clear systems for reporting concerns and staff trained to spot signs of risk.
