About Fairlop Primary School

Fairlop Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent graded inspections, with the latest full inspection taking place in 2015. However, the most telling academic story comes from its 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results. An impressive 79% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which places the school comfortably above the Redbridge local authority average of 74%. This performance also earns Fairlop a ranking of 15th out of 50 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the top 30% locally and the top 25% nationally. The school’s leadership and management were rated Outstanding in its most recent ungraded inspection in 2024, where inspectors confirmed that standards were being maintained, and early years provision was also judged Outstanding.
