About Avanti House Primary School

Avanti House Primary School, a Hindu faith state primary in Harrow, holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in December 2019, and an ungraded inspection in May 2025 noted that the school has improved significantly since then. The strongest academic indicator comes from its Key Stage 2 results for the 2023/24 school year: 82% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits comfortably above the Harrow local authority average of 72%, and it places the school 10th out of 38 primaries in the borough, putting it in the top tier locally. In maths, every single pupil reached the expected standard, and 53% achieved the higher standard. Reading scores were similarly strong, with 97% reaching the expected level and 50% hitting the higher threshold. The school’s national percentile ranking of 8.2 means it outperforms the vast majority of primaries across England on this combined measure.
