Hillcross Primary School
Morden, SM4 4EE · Merton · primary school
23rd of 42 primary schools in Merton we can score, 43 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 — 5.9/10 against 4,258 of them, against 6.1/10 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 | 68.0 · 60 | 62% | 3.70 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 9.0 · 61 | 38% | 2.36 |
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, 68.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared with the national median of 64%. Only 9.0% reached the higher standard. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (5.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 6.1 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Yoga, Dance, and Cheerleading clubs, or play Netball, Football, Gymnastics, Cricket, Tag Rugby, and Table Tennis. The school also provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 437 pupils in a capacity of 498 places, leaving 61 spare spots. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What specific activities are available in the breakfast and after-school clubs? How does the school manage the transition for new families joining a fairly full cohort?
