Field End Junior School
About Field End Junior School
Ofsted may have rated Field End Junior School Good across the board in its April 2024 inspection, but the parent view tells a slightly more complicated story. While the school does not publish a formal Parent View recommendation percentage in its data, the fact that it is oversubscribed — with 277 pupils on roll against a capacity of 360 — suggests a reasonable level of local demand. That said, the school is not among the most sought-after in Hillingdon; it ranks 43rd out of 55 primary schools in the local authority, placing it in the bottom half. For context, the nearest Outstanding-rated school, Deanesfield Primary School, is just 0.8 kilometres away, which may draw some families who prioritise top-tier Ofsted grades. Field End's Good rating is a clear improvement from its previous Requires Improvement judgement in 2018, and the current inspection found leadership, behaviour, personal development and the quality of education all rated Good. Parents considering this school will likely weigh its solid but not exceptional standing against the convenience of location and the positive trajectory.
