Coldfall Primary School
About Coldfall Primary School
Coldfall Primary School holds an Outstanding rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections. In its 2025 graded inspection, inspectors awarded the top mark of 1 (Outstanding) in every category assessed: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. The school’s most telling exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2. At 71%, this is slightly above the Haringey local authority average of 69%. While that gap is modest, Coldfall’s performance is more striking when you look at the higher standard: 16% of pupils achieved the higher benchmark across all three subjects, a figure that suggests the school is stretching a solid core of its cohort.
