St Joseph's RC Primary School
London, W9 1DF · Westminster · primary school
7th of 32 primary schools in Westminster we can score, 33 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 — 9.0/10 against 4,105 of them, against 8.5/10 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 | 78.0 · 84 | 40% | 3.36 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 17.0 · 87 | 25% | 2.18 |
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, 78.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 17.0%. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in May 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.0 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.5 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Coding, Mandarin, Italian, Junior Adventures Group, and Climate Club, play football, and do arts & crafts. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 259 pupils against a capacity of 210, meaning it is over capacity by 49. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the waitlist given it is over capacity by 49 places? What specific support is offered to pupils who do not reach the higher standard? How are the coding and language clubs structured for different age groups?
