4.8/10 Broadly average

26th 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 4,195 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.1/10 among them, against 6.6/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
