St George's CofE Primary School
London, SE23 2NE · Lewisham · primary school
8th 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.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 8.9/10 against 1,416 of them, against 7.5/10 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 | 75.0 · 78 | 40% | 3.11 |
| Ofsted | 92 | 35% | 3.22 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 11.0 · 71 | 25% | 1.77 |
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%. The higher standard was reached by 11.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2026. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (8.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.5 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in football, athletics, basketball, swimming, cricket, hockey, gymnastics, and tennis, alongside drama workshops and dance showcases. Trips include visits to the Horniman Museum, Goldsmiths, the British Museum, the Science Museum, Southwark Cathedral, Dacres Wood, the Imperial War Museum, and Crofton Roman Villa. There is no breakfast or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 204 pupils in a capacity of 300, leaving 96 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What specific support is available for the 11.0% who reached the higher standard? How are the 96 spare places managed to maintain class sizes?
