35th of 84 primary schools in Barnet we can score, 92 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 1,477 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 7.3/10 among them, against 8.5/10 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 | 77.0 · 82 | 40% | 3.28 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 19.0 · 90 | 25% | 2.26 |
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 Sacks Morasha Jewish Primary School
Overview
This is an inclusive school where pupils build strong relationships and are described as “happy, kind” and “confident and articulate”. Leaders have established shared values that are central to school life, creating an environment where pupils work hard and develop a “love for learning”. The school provides a high-quality education with effective leadership and outstanding personal development.
Strengths
- Pupils behave well in a “calm and orderly” environment, showing “genuine consideration for each other’s well-being”.
- The curriculum is “broad and ambitious”, with well-sequenced English and mathematics helping pupils build knowledge logically.
- Leaders prioritise reading, ensuring a “high proportion of pupils can read with accuracy by the end of Reception”.
- Personal development is “exemplary”, with pupils learning about equality, diversity, and citizenship through trips and debates.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) access the same curriculum as peers and “achieve well” with skilled adaptations.
Areas to improve
- In some subjects, there is “not a clear rationale for the sequencing of the curriculum”, meaning pupils do not always build knowledge in a “logical and coherent manner”.
- Leaders’ thinking about the development of subject-specific skills “sometimes lacks rigour” in certain areas.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with a “strong culture of safeguarding” where staff remain alert to risks and report concerns swiftly.
