St Edmund's Catholic Primary School

Twickenham, TW2 7BB · Richmond upon Thames · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2022 Inspected 4 years ago Mixed Primary Roman Catholic
6.2/10 Broadly average

33rd of 38 primary schools in Richmond upon Thames we can score, 45 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 3,389 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.3/10 among them, against 6.7/10 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, 75.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2022. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.3 out of 10 among them, against 6.7 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Art Club, School Council, Eco Team, Mini Vinnies, Anti-Bullying Ambassadors, and Young Interpreters. Sports include football, netball, gymnastics, swimming, rounders, and dance, alongside a choir. Class trips and gallery visits are part of the curriculum. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.

Getting in. The school has 442 pupils in a capacity of 472 places, leaving 30 spare spots. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What specific activities does the after-school club offer? How does the school manage the transition for pupils given the 2022 inspection date?
