About Grange Primary School

Grange Primary School in Southwark sits in an interesting position when you compare its headline Key Stage 2 results against the local authority average. The school achieved a 63% expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, which is five percentage points below the Southwark average of 68% for primary schools. That places it 37th out of 60 primaries in the borough, putting it in the bottom half of local schools. But the picture isn't straightforwardly weak. In reading, 78% of pupils met the expected standard, and in maths it was 68% — both close to or at the LA average. The average scaled scores of 104 in reading and 103 in maths are solid. Where the school really struggles is at the higher standard: just 3% of pupils achieved greater depth in writing, and 25% in reading and maths. So while most children are getting a decent foundation, fewer than average are being pushed into the top tier of attainment.
