About Burdett-Coutts and Townshend Foundation CofE Primary School

Burdett-Coutts and Townshend Foundation CofE Primary School was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, a grade it has held consistently since at least 2014. The school's most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 performance in reading, writing and maths combined: 80% of pupils met the expected standard in the 2023/24 academic year, comfortably above the Westminster local authority average of 74%. This places the school 13th out of 31 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the top 25% nationally for this measure. The school's reading scores are particularly strong, with an average scaled score of 112 and 47% of pupils reaching the higher standard, compared with 33% in maths and writing. While the school has no Progress 8 data available, these attainment figures suggest solid academic foundations for its 168 pupils.
