Shoreditch Park Primary School

London, N1 5JN · Hackney · primary school

Ofsted: Outstanding · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
7.5/10 Above average

27th of 50 primary schools in Hackney we can score. 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 — 8.3/10 against 650 of them, against 6.3/10 nationally. 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.

Get to know the school

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 63.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The school achieved a higher standard for 19.0% of pupils. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in July 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (8.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 6.3 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Art Club, swim, ice skate, and kayak. They perform in the school choir, Christmas Show, and Pantomime. Trips include visits to the Natural History Museum, London Zoo, and the Science Museum. There is no breakfast or after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 441 pupils in a capacity of 445 places, leaving 4 spare spots. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. With only 4 places remaining, how does the school manage waiting lists for new starters? Since there is no wraparound care, what options exist for parents needing support before or after school hours? How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths?
