Honilands Primary School

About Honilands Primary School

Honilands Primary School is a mixed, state primary in Enfield, London, for children aged 3 to 11. With a school capacity of 480, it is a sizeable institution that also offers nursery provision, making it a potential option for families from the earliest years. The school’s religious character is listed as ‘Does not apply’, and it is led by headteacher James Irvine. To understand demand, the data does not provide specific admission oversubscription figures or a percentage of pupils eligible for free school meals, so it is not possible to compare FSM rates against local or national averages here. However, the school’s Good Ofsted rating, combined with its broad age range and nursery offering, suggests it serves a diverse local community. Enfield has 68 primary schools in total, of which nine are rated Outstanding, so Honilands sits within a competitive local landscape where Good is a solid and common standard.

Academically, Honilands holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection. The data does not include specific Key Stage 2 SATs results or a Progress 8 score for this school, so direct academic performance figures are unavailable. For context, the local authority average for Key Stage 2 attainment in Enfield is 67, which provides a benchmark for how primary schools in the area typically perform. Without Honilands’ own results, it is not possible to say whether it exceeds or falls short of this average. The school’s top local peers by ranking score include Hadley Wood Primary School (89), St Paul’s CofE Primary School (88), and One Degree Academy (87), all of which are rated Outstanding or high-performing. Honilands’ Good rating places it in a solid tier, but families seeking detailed academic comparisons would need to consult individual school performance tables.

For practical context, Honilands offers a strong range of facilities including a dining hall, sports hall, library, sensory room, ICT suite, gymnasium, and playing fields, as well as a chapel. Sports provision covers athletics, football, tennis, dance, gymnastics, and rounders, while clubs include science, art, and film club. The nearest Outstanding-rated school is One Degree Academy, 3.7 km away, which may influence catchment decisions for families prioritising top-tier ratings. Honilands is not a boarding school and has no sixth form, as expected for a primary. This school would suit families in Enfield looking for a Good-rated, well-facilitated primary with nursery provision and a broad extracurricular offer, particularly those who value on-site sports and creative clubs. Without oversubscription data, it is unclear how competitive admissions are, so contacting the school directly for intake information is advisable.
