60th 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.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 6.8/10 against 898 of them, against 4.9/10 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 | 65.0 · 52 | 40% | 2.07 |
| Ofsted | 11 | 35% | 0.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 6.0 · 45 | 25% | 1.12 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Christ Church Church of England Primary School
Overview
Christ Church Church of England Primary School is described as a place where pupils are “immensely proud” of their “mutually supportive school community.” The report highlights “highly positive” behaviour and a curriculum that prepares pupils well for life, noting that most achieve well and are ready for the next stage of their education. However, attendance remains a concern, with persistent absence rates above the national average.
Strengths
- The early years curriculum is “highly effective,” with children making “highly positive progress” and being “prepared very well for Year 1.”
- Personal development is placed “at the heart of their work,” fostering pupils’ awareness of safety, British values, and respect for diverse cultures.
- Staff and leaders maintain “high expectations of all pupils,” providing effective support for those with special educational needs and/or disabilities.
- Behaviour is “highly positive throughout the school,” with classrooms described as “calm, purposeful environments” where bullying is rare.
- Leaders have built “supportive relationships with families,” engaging parents effectively in their children’s education.
Areas to improve
- Leaders must ensure that “persistent absence reduces and attendance continues to improve” so pupils do not miss important learning.
- Leaders should strengthen the teaching of “foundational knowledge” to ensure pupils build and apply basic skills in handwriting, spelling, and grammar more securely.
Safeguarding
The safeguarding standards are met, with leaders establishing an “open culture in which safeguarding is everyone's responsibility” and concerns are actively identified and managed.
