33rd of 57 primary schools in Ealing we can score, 65 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 2,851 of them, against 5.8/10 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 | 59.0 · 37 | 40% | 1.47 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 20.0 · 92 | 25% | 2.30 |
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 Mayfield Primary School
Overview
Mayfield Primary School has taken effective action to maintain the standards identified at the previous inspection. The report describes a school with high expectations, a strong sense of community, and a ‘family feel’ where pupils enjoy learning. Leaders and governors have focused carefully on improving the quality of education, resulting in a well-organised curriculum and strong pastoral care.
Strengths
- Pupils benefit from an ambitious curriculum that teaches respect for diversity and ensures strong progress, particularly in mathematics and reading.
- The school prioritises reading with effective phonics teaching; pupils who fall behind are identified quickly and receive support to become confident readers.
- Personal development is a key strength, with pupils becoming mature, responsible individuals who contribute positively to the local community through leadership roles and clubs.
- Arrangements for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are well-thought-out, ensuring they can access the curriculum alongside peers.
- Staff workload has been reduced through new assessment approaches, and most parents are very supportive of the school’s work and communication.
Areas to improve
- In a few subjects, limited teacher expectations and activity choices result in some pupils not completing work of high quality or recalling key knowledge. The school should ensure expectations are consistently high and activities reflect these ambitions.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
