Ivydale Primary School

About Ivydale Primary School

Ivydale Primary School sits comfortably above the local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 70% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with Southwark’s average of 68%. That two-percentage-point gap might sound modest, but it places the school 26th out of 67 primaries in the borough — solidly in the top half. More striking is the proportion of pupils hitting the higher standard: just 8% nationally typical, and here it’s also 8%, so the school isn’t pushing large numbers into the top tier, but it is reliably getting most children to where they need to be. Reading scores are a particular strength, with an average scaled score of 107 and 41% of pupils reaching the higher standard. Maths follows at 105 average, with 25% at the higher level. The school ranks 27th in Southwark on the expected-standard metric, which puts it in the 45th percentile locally and around the 31st percentile nationally — a dependable, middle-of-the-road performer that outperforms the LA average without being among the borough’s elite.
