About Acton Gardens Primary School

Acton Gardens Primary School in Ealing was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2025, with inspectors awarding Good across all five graded categories: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. The school has held a Good rating since at least its previous inspection in 2011. However, the headline exam metric tells a more challenging story. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, only 47% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits well below the Ealing local authority average of 71% and places the school 63rd out of 65 primary schools in the borough, in the bottom 50 nationally. Just 2% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects, compared with 16% in maths alone and 29% in reading. Average scaled scores were 103 in maths and 104 in reading, both slightly above the national baseline of 100 but not enough to lift the combined results.
