Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary Roman Catholic
8.0/10 Above average

8th of 51 primary schools in Brent we can score, 59 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 — 9.5/10 against 4,081 of them, against 9.5/10 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.

How this is worked out
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 91.0 · 98 40% 3.92
Ofsted 52 35% 1.81
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 18.0 · 89 25% 2.23

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, 91.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 18.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in December 2023. 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 (9.5 out of 10 either way).

Getting in. The school has 266 pupils in a capacity of 280, leaving 14 spare places. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. With 14 places remaining, how quickly do they fill up each year? Since the inspection was in late 2023, what changes have been made to the curriculum since then? How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths?
