Winston Way Academy
Ilford, IG1 2WS · Redbridge · primary school
28th of 49 primary schools in Redbridge we can score, 52 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 — 8.7/10 against 2,357 of them, against 7.5/10 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 | 75.0 · 78 | 40% | 3.11 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 11.0 · 71 | 25% | 1.77 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Judo, Multi-sports, Gymnastics, Soft Archery, Arts & Crafts, Dance, Creative, and Lego clubs. Sports include Netball, Football, and Cricket, while arts and music options are Rock Steady and Piano Fun Club. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 613 pupils in a capacity of 678, leaving 65 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths? What specific activities are included in the Creative Club? How does the breakfast club operate on days with early morning trips?
