About Manor Junior School
Manor Junior School, a state primary in Barking and Dagenham for children aged 7 to 11, was rated Good overall in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, but the detail is more striking. Behaviour and attitudes, along with leadership and management, were both judged Outstanding, and the school has held a Good rating across both its recent inspections. On the most informative exam metric available, 74% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at Key Stage 2 in 2023/24. That figure places Manor Junior 8th out of 39 primary schools in the local authority, comfortably in the top 25% nationally. It also sits well above the Barking and Dagenham average of 65%, suggesting the school is delivering stronger-than-typical outcomes for its area.
