Kenmont Primary School

About Kenmont Primary School

Kenmont Primary School sits right on the Hammersmith and Fulham local authority average for the key KS2 measure of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, with 76% hitting that benchmark. That puts it in the middle of the pack locally — ranked 21st out of 35 primary schools in the borough, and 20th when you look at the full list of same-type schools. The school's overall Ofsted rating of Good, confirmed in its most recent inspection in 2023, matches the pattern of a solid, dependable school rather than an outlier. Where Kenmont does stand apart from the LA average is in its higher-attaining pupils: only 5% of its Year 6 cohort achieved the higher standard across all three subjects, which is notably lower than you might expect given the borough's strong performance elsewhere. The school's ranking nationally places it in the 19th percentile, and within London it sits in the 35th percentile — a respectable but not exceptional position.

Looking closer at the 2023/24 KS2 results, Kenmont's pupils performed consistently across the three subjects. In reading, 81% met the expected standard with an average scaled score of 105, while in maths 76% hit the expected mark, also with an average score of 105. Writing saw 86% reach the expected standard, the strongest of the three. The higher-standard figures tell a more mixed story: 33% achieved higher in maths, but only 14% did so in reading and 19% in writing. The school's Ofsted report from January 2023 rated every category as Good, including behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and early years provision — a clean sweep of 2s. The previous inspection in 2012 also rated the school Good overall, so Kenmont has maintained a consistent standard over more than a decade. With 218 pupils on roll against a capacity of 240, the school is not quite full, but it is oversubscribed for Reception places: 77 applications came in for 30 spots in 2025/26, with 23 of those being first-preference offers.

Kenmont is a mixed, non-religious state primary with a nursery provision for children aged three and up. The school has a notably high proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals at 34.4%, well above the national average, which adds context to its solid academic performance. Facilities include a gymnasium, forest school area, music rooms, a sensory room and a chapel. Sports on offer cover netball, tennis, athletics and cross country, while clubs include science, drama, eco and art. The school lists SEND provisions for a range of needs including dyslexia, moderate learning difficulties, social and emotional mental health, speech and language communication, and autistic spectrum disorder. Parent feedback from the 2024/25 period was overwhelmingly positive: 92% of respondents would recommend the school, and every single parent agreed or strongly agreed that their child is happy and feels safe. This is a school that suits families looking for a well-regarded local option with strong pastoral care and a broad offer, rather than one chasing top-tier academic accolades.
