About Hawley Primary School

Hawley Primary School sits within the Camden local authority, where it ranks 28th out of 38 primary schools on the key stage 2 expected standard measure. That places it in the lower half of the borough’s state primaries, though the picture is more nuanced than a single rank suggests. The top-performing local peers — Christ Church Primary School, Hampstead, Hampstead Parochial Church of England Primary School, and St Luke’s Church of England School — all achieve higher ranking scores, but Hawley serves a very different demographic. Over half of its 228 pupils (51.3%) are eligible for free school meals, a figure well above the national average, and the school’s most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024 confirmed it remains Good, a rating it has held consistently since at least 2014. The nearest Outstanding-rated school is Our Lady Roman Catholic Primary School, just 0.6 km away, which gives local families a clear alternative within walking distance.
