Keir Hardie Primary School

London, E16 1FZ · Newham · primary school

Ofsted: Outstanding · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
9.2/10 Well above average

15th of 63 primary schools in Newham we can score, 68 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 — 9.6/10 against 1,502 of them, against 8.9/10 nationally. 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 85.0 · 94 40% 3.75

Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 14.0 · 81 25% 2.03

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, 85.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 14.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in May 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.6 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.9 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Reading Gladiators, Homework Club, Mindfulness, Gardening, Film Club, and Booster Sessions. Sports include Gymnastics, Blazepods, Multi-skills, Mixed Football, Boxing, Rollerskating, Karate, and Tennis. Arts and music options cover Choir & Orchestra, Cheerleading, Dodgeball, and Disney Drama. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.

Getting in. The school has 437 pupils in a capacity of 480, leaving 43 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How do the Booster Sessions support pupils who have not yet reached the expected standard? What specific activities are included in the Mindfulness club? How does the school manage the transition for pupils moving from Year 6?
