Riverbridge Primary School
About Riverbridge Primary School
Riverbridge Primary School sits in Spelthorne, part of Surrey, and its headline Key Stage 2 results paint a mixed picture against the local authority average. The school's proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 57%, which is noticeably below the Surrey primary average of 66%. That gap is significant, and it's reflected in the school's ranking: it sits 154th out of 298 primary schools in the county, placing it in the bottom half nationally. However, dig into the individual subjects and the picture becomes more nuanced. In maths, 75% of pupils hit the expected standard, and the average score was 103 — both solid figures. Reading and writing expected rates were 65% and 66% respectively, again close to the national average. The real drag on the combined figure comes from the very low proportion of pupils achieving the higher standard across all three subjects: just 1%. That suggests the school is getting most children to a basic level, but struggling to push a significant number beyond it.
