Lansbury Lawrence Primary School
London, E14 6DZ · Tower Hamlets · primary school
10th of 60 primary schools in Tower Hamlets 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.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 8.8/10 against 1,161 of them, against 7.4/10 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 | 71.0 · 68 | 40% | 2.73 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 15.0 · 84 | 25% | 2.09 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Getting in. The school has 452 pupils in a building with 420 places, meaning it is over capacity by 32. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 32 more pupils than its official capacity allows? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard in their assessments? How does the school maintain its Outstanding rating while operating above its designated place limit?
