Check the area around this school
26th of 45 primary schools in Hounslow we can score, 50 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 — 7.2/10 against 3,141 of them, against 6.5/10 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 | 68.0 · 60 | 40% | 2.40 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 12.0 · 74 | 25% | 1.85 |
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 Springwell School
Overview
Springwell School is rated as ‘Good’ across all inspection categories. Pupils enjoy a ‘calm and orderly environment’ where they feel safe and supported, demonstrating the school motto ‘Aspire, Create, Achieve’ through hard work and high-quality output.
Strengths
- The curriculum is ‘typically ambitious’ and builds sequentially, helping pupils in subjects like mathematics and art to ‘tackle more ideas’ using prior knowledge.
- Reading is a high priority, with a structured phonics programme ensuring most pupils read with ‘accuracy, fluency and confidence’.
- Pupils with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are ‘swiftly identified’ and receive appropriate adaptations to access the planned curriculum.
- There is a ‘strong sense of community’, with staff feeling well-supported and pupils engaging in leadership roles such as ‘language buddies’ and school councils.
- Personal development is carefully considered, teaching pupils about ‘safe, healthy and respectful relationships’ and mindfulness techniques.
Areas to improve
- In a few subjects, key knowledge has not been ‘clearly identified or well-sequenced’, leading to less secure understanding for some pupils.
- Assessment in these areas is used less effectively, meaning ‘errors and misconceptions are not swiftly identified and addressed’.
- The school’s approach to evaluating provision is ‘not consistently robust’, resulting in self-evaluation that is ‘not always accurate’.
Safeguarding
The report states that ‘the arrangements for safeguarding are effective’.
