About Sandringham Primary School

Sandringham Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit just above the Newham local authority average, with 75% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 74%. That slim margin might not sound dramatic, but it places the school in the top quarter nationally for this metric, and it’s worth noting that the school is significantly larger than most primaries in the borough, with 990 pupils on roll. The school’s most recent graded Ofsted inspection, back in 2017, rated it Outstanding overall, and an ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed it remains Outstanding. Leadership and management, early years provision and behaviour and attitudes were all judged Outstanding at that graded inspection. That consistency is notable in a borough where 27 out of 68 primary schools currently hold an Outstanding rating, meaning Sandringham is in good company but not an outlier.
