William Tyndale Primary School
London, N1 2GG · Islington · primary school
6th of 39 primary schools in Islington we can score, 40 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 — 9.6/10 against 2,753 of them, against 9.1/10 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 | 83.0 · 92 | 62% | 5.65 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 19.0 · 90 | 38% | 3.48 |
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, 83.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. A further 19.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.6 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.1 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs including choir, guitar, orchestra, computer, book club, creative writing, and DebateMate. Sports options cover gymnastics, hockey, football, athletics, street dance, and ballet. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 447 pupils in a capacity of 450 places, leaving 3 spare places. With so few vacancies, places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the waitlist when only 3 places remain? What specific support is offered to pupils who do not reach the expected standard? How are the various music and sports clubs scheduled to avoid conflicts with core lessons?
