Ofsted: Outstanding · 2025 Inspected 1 year ago Mixed Primary
9.3/10 Well above average

3rd of 31 primary schools in Sutton we can score, 41 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 2,805 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.6/10 among them, against 9.1/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 79.0 · 86 40% 3.43
Ofsted 96 35% 3.37
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 31.0 · 98 25% 2.46

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, 79.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 31.0%. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in May 2025. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.6 out of 10 among them, against 9.1 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils attend a science sleepover and multi-day trips to High Ashurst, Kingswood, and the Isle of Wight. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.

Getting in. The school has 919 pupils in a capacity of 892, meaning it is over capacity by 27. Consequently, places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being over capacity with 27 extra pupils? What specific support is offered to help pupils bridge the gap between the expected and higher standards? How are the multi-day trips structured to ensure all pupils can participate?
