Redbridge Primary School
About Redbridge Primary School
Redbridge Primary School sits just above the local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 75% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths compared to Redbridge’s average of 74%. That one-percentage-point gap is narrow, but it places the school 23rd out of 50 primaries in the borough, putting it in the middle of the pack rather than among the top performers. The school’s ranking score of 75 lands it in the top 25% nationally, which is a respectable showing, though it trails the three top peers in the LA — Al-Noor, St Bede’s and Our Lady of Lourdes — all of which score 87 or 88. What stands out more is the school’s size: with 853 pupils against a capacity of 817, it is significantly oversubscribed, and its 1.94 oversubscription ratio suggests strong local demand. The headteacher, Rachel Targett Adams, leads a school that has seen its Ofsted rating shift from Outstanding in 2013 to Good in its most recent graded inspection in June 2024, with all five inspected categories — quality of education, behaviour, personal development, leadership and early years — rated Good.
