About Selborne Primary School

Selborne Primary School sits well above the Ealing local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 84% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 71%. That 13-point gap is significant and places the school 7th out of 65 primary schools in the borough, comfortably inside the top 10. The school’s overall Ofsted rating is Outstanding, a grade it has held since its most recent graded inspection in 2017, and an ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed it remains Outstanding. Leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness all received Outstanding judgements, while the previous inspection in 2012 rated the school Good. With 654 pupils on roll against a capacity of 630, Selborne is clearly a popular choice among local families.
