About Bishop John Robinson Church of England Primary School

Bishop John Robinson Church of England Primary School sits slightly below the Greenwich local authority average for the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at Key Stage 2. The school’s figure of 69% compares with a borough average of 71%, placing it 34th out of 57 primary schools in Greenwich. That’s a middling position, but the gap is narrow — just two percentage points — and the school outperforms the LA average in writing, where 90% of pupils met the expected standard. Reading and maths expected rates are 79% and 86% respectively, both solid. The school’s ranking within the top 50% nationally (34th percentile) and the middle of the London region (55th percentile) confirms it as a broadly average performer for core subjects, though its writing results are a clear strength.
