About Lake Farm Park Academy

Lake Farm Park Academy, a large state primary in Hillingdon, outperforms the local authority average by a clear margin. While the LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined sits at 64%, this school achieves 75%. That puts it 16th out of 67 primary schools in the borough, comfortably inside the top quarter nationally. It’s a solid, above-average performer that doesn’t shout about it — the kind of school where the headline numbers quietly do the talking. The school is led by headteacher Harshindar Buttar and has a non-religious character, serving a mixed cohort of 667 pupils aged 3 to 11. Just under a quarter of pupils (22.9%) are eligible for free school meals, which is slightly above the national average, making the academic results all the more notable.
