About Ashburnham Community School

Ashburnham Community School, a state primary in Kensington and Chelsea, was judged Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in January 2025, a change from its previous Outstanding rating from 2015. The school’s most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard, which sits at 64%. This places the school 16th out of 25 primary schools in the local authority, a middle-of-the-pack position that reflects a solid but not exceptional performance. The local authority average for this measure is 72%, so Ashburnham is eight percentage points behind its neighbours. The school’s ranking score of 64 puts it in the top 50 nationally by this metric, though it is worth noting that the three top-performing primaries in the borough — Oratory Roman Catholic, Fox Primary and Thomas Jones — all achieved a ranking score of 93.
