Dulwich Wood Primary School

About Dulwich Wood Primary School

Dulwich Wood Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit noticeably below the Southwark local authority average, which is a key point for parents to weigh up. In the 2023/24 academic year, 54% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 68%. That 14-point gap places the school 52nd out of 60 primary schools in the borough, in the bottom half of the local rankings. On the plus side, individual subject scores tell a slightly more nuanced story: 79% of pupils reached the expected level in reading and 73% in maths, both respectable figures. The school’s reading average scaled score of 107 is solid, and 44% of pupils achieved the higher standard in reading — a strong result. However, writing and maths at the higher level drop to just 8% and 27% respectively, and only 8% of pupils hit the higher standard across all three subjects. So while the school does well for some children, the overall combined figure suggests it struggles to push a majority over the expected threshold.
