About Fox Primary School

Fox Primary School sits within the Kensington and Chelsea local authority, a London borough where 13 of 28 primary schools hold an Outstanding Ofsted rating. Among its closest academic peers, the school shares the top ranking score of 93 alongside Oratory Roman Catholic Primary School and Thomas Jones Primary School, placing it firmly among the strongest state primaries in the area. It is also the nearest Outstanding-rated primary to its own postcode, within just 0.1 km. Headteacher Paul Cotter leads a mixed, state-funded primary for children aged 4 to 11, with 240 pupils on roll. The school’s most recent Ofsted inspection, in October 2023, awarded it Outstanding across every category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision. That marks a continuation of its previous Outstanding grade, though the earlier inspection had rated early years provision as Good, so the latest result represents an improvement in that specific area.
