Sandhurst Primary School

London, SE6 1NW · Lewisham · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
6.0/10 Broadly average

32nd of 63 primary schools in Lewisham we can score, 64 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 6.5/10 against 4,258 of them, against 6.5/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 67.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 13.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2024. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (6.5 out of 10 either way).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Cheerleading, Coding and Computing, and Basketball clubs, and visit the Houses of Parliament. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 648 pupils in a capacity of 660, leaving 12 spare places. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. With only 12 places remaining, how does the school manage waiting lists for new starters? Since there is no breakfast club, what support is offered for pupils arriving before the school day begins? How does the school ensure that the 13.0% who reach the higher standard continue to be challenged in their learning?
