Check the area around this school
55th of 56 primary schools in Lambeth we can score, 58 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 — 4.4/10 against 935 of them, against 3.1/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 54.0 · 26 | 40% | 1.03 |
| Ofsted | 6 | 35% | 0.22 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 5.0 · 40 | 25% | 1.00 |
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 Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School
Overview
Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School provides a "calm and stable environment" where pupils feel secure and valued. While the curriculum is "broad and ambitious" and safeguarding is well managed, the report highlights that attendance is too low and some pupils do not achieve as highly as they could in national assessments.
Strengths
- The curriculum is "broad and ambitious," with clear planning that helps teachers link new learning to prior knowledge.
- Staff create a "positive culture" where pupils feel included, with effective support for those with special educational needs and/or disabilities.
- Safeguarding is "well managed," with an open culture where concerns are actively identified and acted upon.
- Pupils demonstrate high standards of behaviour, showing respect for one another and engaging enthusiastically in wider opportunities like trips and clubs.
- Early reading has been strengthened, with "almost all pupils" learning to read confidently by the end of Year 1.
Areas to improve
- Leaders must embed strategies to improve pupil attendance and reduce persistent absence, which is currently above national figures.
- Leaders should embed recent improvements to the curriculum and teaching so pupils "deepen their knowledge and consistently achieve well across the curriculum."
Safeguarding
The safeguarding standards are met, with leaders establishing an open culture where safeguarding is everyone's responsibility and pupils are made safer.
