London’s top 100 state primary schools 2019

9 Comments / By /

The below are London’s highest performing state primary schools based on 2019 SATS test data for Year 6 pupils (see here for most up to data 2023 rankings). The schools are ranked based on the percentage of pupils who achieve a high level of attainment in Writing, Reading and Maths.

These statistics tend to be correlated with socioeconomic profile of the intake, but it is still the best way of ranking the academic level of the pupils at the schools, even if it is not necessarily a result of the quality of teaching. The usual suspects are all there, but you will inevitably discover some surprising high performers.

    Hello,
    Thank you for this helpful website. Are you able to consult on catchment areas? We are seriously looking at a property that seems to be on the cusp of the catchment based on previous year data, but would like some assurance regarding admissions before committing.
    Thank you,
    Monica

    This list is missing Cheam Common Junior Academy with 32% of high achievers. It is listed just below Westbourne primary but above Cheam Park Farm Primary Academy on the government website for schools in Sutton.
