Judith Kerr Primary School

London, SE24 9JE · Southwark · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2022 Inspected 4 years ago Mixed Primary
8.0/10 Well above average

11th of 62 primary schools in Southwark we can score, 66 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 — 9.2/10 against 2,050 of them, against 9.5/10 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.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 86.0 · 95 40% 3.81
Ofsted 52 35% 1.78
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 27.0 · 97 25% 2.44

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, 86.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 27.0% reached the higher standard. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (9.2 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.5 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2022.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in football, netball, cricket, and dance. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 407 pupils in a capacity of 392, meaning it is over capacity by 15. Consequently, places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being over capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard? How does the breakfast club integrate with the morning routine?
