Woodpecker Hall Primary Academy
London, N9 8DR · Enfield · primary school
9th of 61 primary schools in Enfield we can score, 68 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 — 9.9/10 against 1,896 of them, against 9.7/10 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.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 91.0 · 98 | 40% | 3.92 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 26.0 · 96 | 25% | 2.41 |
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, 91.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 26.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2024. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (9.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.7 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join a choir, samba band, or pop band, with peripatetic guitar and keyboard tuition available. Art Week features a graffiti artist masterclass, and trips include festivals at local theatres. Both breakfast and after-school clubs operate.
Getting in. The school has 780 pupils in a building with 960 places, leaving 180 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 are not yet meeting the expected standard in maths? What specific activities are included in the after-school club? How does the school manage class sizes given the current number of spare places?
