Our Lady of Muswell Catholic Primary School
About Our Lady of Muswell Catholic Primary School
Our Lady of Muswell Catholic Primary School holds an Outstanding rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained since its most recent ungraded inspection in 2024, which confirmed the school remains Outstanding. This places it among 18 outstanding primary schools in Haringey out of 63 total. The most telling exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined: 69% did so in the 2023/24 academic year. That figure matches the Haringey local authority average exactly, suggesting the school delivers solid, typical outcomes for the borough. However, the school’s ranking within Haringey sits at 30th out of 51 primaries on this metric, which places it in the middle of the pack locally. Nationally, it ranks in the 35th percentile among all primaries. So while the Ofsted rating is top-tier, the headline attainment figure is more modest — a reminder that Outstanding inspections consider broader factors beyond raw test scores.
