Against London and Harrow
Track: London's middle 80% (10th to 90th percentile); L = London median; H = Harrow median, shown when 10 or more of its schools have a figure; the dot is this school.
London state schools in Close Knit with a published figure, same phase (primary or secondary) and year; the borough median only when 10 or more of its schools have one. 10th, 50th and 90th percentiles with linear interpolation (PostgreSQL percentile_cont).
Colour only where lower or higher is clearly better (absence: lower): blue = better than the London median, red = in London's worst 10%.
Money: Compared only with academies' accounts (AAR), same academic year.
Results
England rank: Key stage 2: % of pupils meeting the expected standard in reading, writing and maths; ties broken by % at the higher standard. Ranked among 15,057 primaries in England, 2024/25. England's state-funded mainstream schools with a published figure that year (suppressed or missing figures are left out); equal figures share a rank; top % = rank ÷ schools × 100, rounded up.
Top % in England by year: the first and best years are labelled; the dashed line is the middle (top 50%).
Against London: London state primaries, same year, cohort 30+, suppressed figures left out. Steps: the score out of 10 against London (10 = top 10%).
Arrows: change in London percentile points since 2018/19.
Pupils counted: 46 pupils (2024/25), every measure.

Getting in
Got in = first-choice families offered a place on national offer day ÷ families who put the school first. Putting a school first gives no priority: siblings and distance decide.
First-choice applications not offered a place on national offer day: 100 × (1 − first-preference offers ÷ first preferences). Applications count preferences, not children; places can still be offered from waiting lists after offer day.
Source: DfE, Primary and secondary school applications and offers.
Last distance offered: the straight line from the school to the furthest child offered a place under the distance rule. Not a catchment: it changes every year.
Harrow Council, Reception, 2020/21–26. Open Government Licence v3.0. Measured: straight-line.
You: the straight line from the centre of Canons Park (the area you came from) to the school, not from your door; inside or outside compares it with the latest distance offered.

Dates are the day each inspection started: Oct 2022 Remains Good · Mar 2017 Good · Feb 2014 Requires improvement · May 2013 Inadequate · Jan 2010 Outstanding · Dec 2006 Good. Each dot opens its Ofsted report.

Pupils
Full = pupils on roll ÷ the school's capacity (630 places), from Get Information about Schools.
Pupil profile and absence: DfE school census and pupil absence (Compare school and college performance). Free school meals = eligible at any time in the past 6 years; persistently absent = missed 10% or more of sessions. Withheld = suppressed by DfE.

School workforce census, 2025/26. Staff in FTE (full-time equivalent), rounded to 1 decimal on the card. As published: teachers 28.9, leadership 4.5, teaching assistants 20.72, support staff incl. TAs 36.15, whole workforce 65.05 (88 people), 32 teachers by headcount.
Other support = support staff incl. TAs minus teaching assistants.

- Teachers in leadership posts: head, deputy and assistant heads
Financials
Academy accounts (AAR) · September 2024 to August 2025.
Published total ÷ FTE pupils in the same return, to the nearest pound; income and spend per pupil are left out when the return covers less than 12 months.
CFR (maintained schools, April–March) and AAR (academies, September–August) are different accounts and years: do not compare a maintained school with an academy.

From Ofsted report, inspected Oct 2022
Strengths
- “Leaders work to nurture strong relationships with parents and carers.”
- “They regularly invite parents into school to take part in events or work alongside their child.”
- “Some parents said that leaders have created a strong, cohesive school community.”
To improve
- “Sometimes, teaching does not make explicit links to key knowledge pupils have learned in previous years.”
- “Therefore, pupils struggle to connect and build on this knowledge.”
- “Leaders should ensure that teachers check pupils’ recollection of previous teaching is secure before introducing more complex ideas.”
