About Ark Conway Primary Academy

Ark Conway Primary Academy’s Key Stage 2 results comfortably outpace the Hammersmith and Fulham local authority average of 76% for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. The school’s figure of 90% places it well above the typical primary in the borough, and its ranking of 6th out of 35 schools in the LA puts it in the top 20% locally. More striking is the proportion of pupils achieving the higher standard in those same subjects: 45% hit that top tier, a strong indicator of depth as well as breadth. In reading, 55% reached the higher standard, and in writing it was 62%, while maths saw 59% at that level. The average scaled scores of 111 in maths and 110 in reading are also notably high. This is a school where academic outcomes are consistently strong across the board, not just in one area.
