Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Needs attention Mixed Primary
1.1/10 Well below average

31st of 31 primary schools in Sutton we can score, 41 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 — 1.3/10 against 1,399 of them, against 1.3/10 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.

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 31.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 3.0% reached the higher standard. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (1.3 out of 10 either way). Ofsted rated the school Good in April 2026.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Multi-Skills, Choir, and Rocksteady clubs, play football, and complete the Daily Mile. Trips include the British Library, British Museum, and Sutton Ecology Centre. A breakfast club is available, but there is no after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 161 pupils in a building with 446 places, leaving 285 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 do not reach the expected standard in maths? What provision exists for children who need care after the school day ends? How does the recent inspection influence current teaching priorities?
