About Christ Church Primary School

Christ Church Primary School in Barnet delivers Key Stage 2 results that sit comfortably above the local authority average for primary schools. In the 2023/24 assessments, 81% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a Barnet average of 73%. That eight-point gap places the school 22nd out of 80 primaries in the borough, putting it in the top 30% locally and the top 10% nationally. Maths is a particular strength: 90% of children met the expected level and 52% reached the higher standard, while reading and writing also outperform the LA norm. The school also excels at the higher standard, with 26% of pupils achieving that benchmark across all three subjects. This is a school that consistently delivers strong core outcomes in a competitive London borough, and its position in the league table reflects that.
