About All Saints Benhilton CofE Primary School

All Saints Benhilton CofE Primary School is a Church of England primary in the London borough of Sutton, a local authority with 42 primary schools in total. Among those, it currently sits at 22nd place when ranked by KS2 performance, placing it just outside the top half of Sutton primaries. The three highest-ranked peers in the borough are Cheam Fields Primary Academy, Westbourne Primary School, and Cheam Common Junior Academy, each scoring notably higher on the same metric. The nearest school rated Outstanding by Ofsted is Manor Park Primary Academy, about a kilometre away. All Saints Benhilton itself holds a Good rating from its most recent graded inspection in 2015, and an ungraded visit in February 2025 judged that the school had improved significantly since then. Leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness were all rated Good at the last full inspection, and the school has held a Good rating consistently across both its graded inspections.

In the 2023/24 academic year, 63% of pupils at All Saints Benhilton reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2. That is six percentage points below the Sutton local authority average of 69%. The school’s national ranking on this measure places it in the 49th percentile, meaning it sits almost exactly in the middle of all primary schools in England. Looking at individual subjects, reading was the strongest area: 87% of pupils met the expected standard and 31% reached the higher standard, with an average scaled score of 106. In maths, 69% met the expected standard and 27% reached the higher standard, with an average score of 104. Writing saw 84% at the expected level and 26% at the higher level. The school does not publish progress scores for reading, writing or maths, so it is not possible to compare how much value the school adds relative to pupils’ starting points.

The school has a nursery provision and caters for children aged 3 to 11, with a total of 461 pupils on roll against a capacity of 468. It is oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, there were 151 applications for 59 places, an oversubscription ratio of 2.56, and 53 of the 57 first-preference applicants were offered a place. Facilities include a library, playing fields, a dining hall, music rooms, a forest school and a chapel. Clubs on offer include science, book club, coding, chess, art club and choir, and the school fields teams in netball, football, cricket and tennis. The school has identified SEND provisions for specific learning difficulties (dyslexia), social, emotional and mental health needs, speech, language and communication needs, and hearing and visual impairments. Parent View responses from 99 parents between September 2024 and September 2025 show that 77% would recommend the school, though only 44% of parents with SEND children agreed that the school gives them the support they need, with 56% disagreeing.
