About Perivale Primary School

Perivale Primary School’s headline metrics present a mixed picture when set against the Ealing local authority average for primary schools. The school’s KS2 expected standard in reading, writing and maths sits at 58%, which is notably below the LA average of 71%. That gap of 13 percentage points places Perivale in the bottom half of primary schools in the borough, ranked 55th out of 65. Yet this isn’t the full story. The school holds an Ofsted Outstanding rating, upgraded from Good in its 2017 graded inspection, and its most recent ungraded inspection in 2024 confirmed it remains Outstanding. So you have a school that inspectors clearly rate very highly, but whose core academic outcomes at Key Stage 2 don’t match the LA norm. It’s an unusual combination, and one worth unpacking before drawing conclusions.
