About Ronald Ross Primary School

Ronald Ross Primary School’s headline metrics put it well ahead of the Wandsworth local authority average for primary schools. While the LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined (KS2) sits at 68%, Ronald Ross achieves a striking 90%. That gap of 22 percentage points is significant and places the school second out of 55 primaries in the borough, comfortably inside the top five per cent nationally. The school also outperforms on higher-level attainment: 20% of pupils reach the higher standard in all three subjects, compared with a much lower LA average. Reading scores are particularly strong, with an average scaled score of 110 and 43% of pupils hitting the higher standard. Maths and writing also show solid higher-attainment figures at 30% and 33% respectively. This isn’t a school that just meets expectations — it consistently exceeds them, and the data suggests that applies across the board rather than in just one subject area.
