About Grange Park School

Grange Park School in Hillingdon has been rated Good by Ofsted, a significant improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating. The school's most recent graded inspection took place in 2016, and an ungraded inspection in November 2024 confirmed that standards are being maintained, with leadership and management also judged as Good. When it comes to academic outcomes, the key metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which stood at 62% in the 2023/24 academic year. This is just below the Hillingdon local authority average of 64%, placing the school 36th out of 67 primary schools in the borough. In the national rankings, Grange Park sits around the midpoint, at the 51st percentile.

Looking more closely at the Key Stage 2 results, the school performs solidly in individual subjects. In reading, 78% of pupils met the expected standard and 29% reached the higher standard, with an average scaled score of 105. Writing saw 79% at the expected level, though only 6% achieved the higher standard. Maths results were similar, with 73% at the expected level and 27% at the higher standard, and an average score of 105. Progress scores are not available for any subject, so it is not possible to say how much value the school adds relative to pupils' starting points. The school's overall ranking score of 62 places it in the bottom 50% nationally, though it is worth noting that the school has a higher-than-average proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals at 20.9%.
