About Brampton Primary Academy

Brampton Primary Academy in Bexley was rated Good in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection in 2018, and an ungraded inspection in June 2024 confirmed the school remains Good. That ungraded visit saw leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness all judged as Good. The school’s most telling exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stands at 64 per cent. That is just below the Bexley local authority average of 67 per cent for primary schools. In the local authority rankings, Brampton sits 31st out of 55 primary schools, placing it in the middle of the pack. The school’s score of 64 on this key measure puts it in the top 50 per cent nationally, though it is some way behind the top-performing local primaries such as St Thomas More Catholic Primary School, which scores 95.
