Check the area around this school
20th of 25 primary schools in Kensington and Chelsea we can score, 26 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 — 6.5/10 against 2,358 of them, against 5.4/10 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 | 56.0 · 30 | 40% | 1.18 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 22.0 · 94 | 25% | 2.35 |
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 CofE Primary School
Overview
Holy Trinity C of E Primary School continues to be a good school, providing a high-quality education within a vibrant community. Leaders have established a calm and orderly environment where pupils are kind, respectful, and show a strong interest in their learning. The school is praised for its broad curriculum, effective support for pupils with special educational needs, and a strong culture of safeguarding.
Strengths
- Leaders have designed a "broad and ambitious curriculum" that is well sequenced and enriched by trips and visits.
- Most pupils learn to read with fluency through effective phonics teaching, with targeted support helping those who need extra help to "catch up with their peers."
- A high proportion of pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities access the same curriculum as other pupils, receiving specific help to achieve well.
- Pupils behave very well, showing respect and taking on increasing responsibility for their own behaviour as they move through the school.
- Staff workload is manageable, and leaders prioritise staff well-being, fostering a positive working environment.
Areas to improve
- Teachers sometimes do not sequence learning activities effectively or check pupils’ understanding with sufficient rigour, leading to gaps in knowledge.
- Leaders should ensure teachers receive the pedagogical training needed to secure and build up pupils’ knowledge in a coherent way.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with a "very strong culture of safeguarding" ensuring staff are alert to risks and report concerns swiftly.
