About Eastwick Junior School

If you're weighing up Eastwick Junior School for your child, the parent feedback offers a mixed but largely positive picture. In the most recent Parent View survey, covering September 2024 to September 2025, 70% of the 114 respondents said they would recommend the school. That's a solid majority, though it leaves a notable 30% who wouldn't. On the specifics, the strongest signals come from activities and communication: 88% of parents agreed or strongly agreed that their child can take part in clubs and activities, and 86% felt the school makes them aware of what their child will learn. However, there are areas of concern. Only 57% felt that concerns are dealt with properly, and just 61% agreed that SEND children get the support they need. The school is oversubscribed in a practical sense — it has 326 pupils against a capacity of 360, so there is some room, but it's not stretched to the limit.

Academically, Eastwick Junior School performs around the middle of the pack. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results, 65% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which is just a whisker below the Surrey local authority average of 66%. The school ranks 5th out of 11 primary schools in Mole Valley, and 109th out of 298 in the wider Surrey LA. Looking at individual subjects, maths stands out: 81% of pupils hit the expected standard and 27% reached the higher standard, with an average scaled score of 105. Reading and writing were a touch lower, with 78% and 74% at expected respectively. The school's most recent Ofsted inspection, an ungraded visit in March 2025, confirmed that standards are being maintained, and it continues to hold a Good rating overall, a grade it has held since at least its previous graded inspection in 2014.

Eastwick Junior School is a state primary for children aged 7 to 11, located in the Mole Valley borough of Surrey. It has a broad range of facilities including a sports hall, music rooms, art studios, a sensory room and even a chapel. Sports on offer include athletics, swimming, netball, cricket, rounders and cross country, while clubs extend to book club, coding, choir and drama. The school's SEND provisions are wide-ranging, covering areas from dyslexia and autism to speech and language needs, and it also has a resourced provision. With 14.4% of pupils eligible for free school meals, the intake is fairly representative. This school will suit families who value a good range of extracurricular activities and solid, if not outstanding, academic results, and who are comfortable with a school where parent satisfaction, while positive, shows some clear areas for improvement.
