About Haseltine Primary School

Haseltine Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 result sits well below the Lewisham average for primary schools. The combined proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths is 51 per cent, compared with a local authority average of 64 per cent. That gap of 13 percentage points places the school 51st out of 59 primaries in the borough, firmly in the bottom half. But the picture is not uniformly weak. In reading, 75 per cent of pupils met the expected standard, comfortably above the national benchmark, and the average scaled score of 105 is solid. Maths is also respectable, with 67 per cent reaching the expected level and an average score of 103. The real drag comes from writing, where only 57 per cent hit the expected standard, and from the very low proportion of pupils — just 6 per cent — who achieved the higher standard across all three subjects. So while the school isn’t struggling across the board, the combined figure puts it behind most of its Lewisham peers.
