Torridon Primary School

London, SE6 1TG · Lewisham · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary
4.8/10 Broadly average

48th 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 — 5.4/10 against 2,576 of them, against 4.7/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 66.0 · 54 40% 2.16

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, 66.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 4.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in March 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (5.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.7 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in the Lewisham Games, a Unity dance group, and Arts ambassador roles. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.

Getting in. The school has 632 pupils in a capacity of 660, leaving 28 spare places. With so few vacancies, places are likely to be competitive for new applicants.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard? What specific activities are included in the after-school club? How does the school manage entry when demand exceeds the 28 available places?
