Ofsted: Requires improvement · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
2.0/10 Below average

37th of 38 primary schools in Harrow we can score, 40 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 3,967 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.4/10 among them, against 3.0/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

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 3.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in January 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.4 out of 10 among them, against 3.0 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. The school offers a RISE & SHINE breakfast club and a Stay And Play after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 566 pupils in a capacity of 682, leaving 116 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to move from the current 56.0% expected standard towards the national median? What specific actions are being taken to address the "Requires improvement" rating from the 2024 inspection? How do the smaller class sizes resulting from the 116 spare places affect individual teaching time?
