About Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School

Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School sits slightly below the Richmond upon Thames local authority average for the percentage of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at Key Stage 2. The school’s figure of 74% compares with an LA average of 76%, placing it 23rd out of 38 primary schools in the borough. That’s a respectable mid-table position, though it’s worth noting that the top three schools in the area all achieve ranking scores above 90, so competition is stiff. The school’s overall Ofsted rating is Good, a grade it has held consistently across its two most recent graded inspections. The most recent ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed that the school remains Good, with leadership and management also rated Good. The school is a Roman Catholic state primary for mixed genders aged 3 to 11, with a nursery provision on site. With 171 pupils against a capacity of 240, it is not at full roll, and 18.1% of pupils are eligible for free school meals.
