10th of 51 primary schools in Brent we can score, 59 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 the 886 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.0/10 among them, against 9.1/10 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 | 80.0 · 88 | 40% | 3.51 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 24.0 · 95 | 25% | 2.38 |
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 North West London Jewish Day School
Overview
North West London Jewish Day School continues to be a good school, with leaders maintaining high expectations that foster positive attitudes towards learning. Pupils demonstrate respect and kindness, contributing to a strong sense of community where they feel safe and supported by staff. The school provides a broad curriculum and effective support for pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities.
Strengths
- Pupils exhibit excellent behaviour, showing "respect and kindness for each other and staff" and listening before sharing views.
- Leaders have designed a "broad and ambitious curriculum" with careful sequencing, helping pupils develop secure subject-specific knowledge in areas like history and science.
- Reading is prioritised effectively, with staff receiving training in phonics and using assessment data to intervene quickly if pupils fall behind.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities benefit from "bespoke support" and skilled adults who use resources appropriately.
- Staff well-being is valued, with leaders providing opportunities for professional development and understanding workload pressures.
Areas to improve
- In a few subjects, strategies to help pupils deepen their understanding are not yet embedded; leaders should strengthen teachers’ subject expertise to build knowledge securely across all subjects.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with leaders identifying concerns quickly, reporting them via clear systems, and providing regular training and mental health support for pupils.
