Southfield Park Primary School

About Southfield Park Primary School

Southfield Park Primary School is a state-funded, mixed-gender primary in Epsom and Ewell, part of Surrey’s local authority. With a school capacity of 420 places, it serves children aged 4 to 11 and has no nursery provision. The school’s religious character is listed as ‘does not apply’, and the headteacher is Sally Smith. While the data does not include a specific free school meals percentage, the school operates within a local authority where 33 out of 298 primary schools are rated Outstanding, suggesting a competitive local landscape. The nearest Outstanding-rated school, Stamford Green Primary School and Nursery, is just 0.9 km away, which may influence local demand. The absence of admissions oversubscription data makes it difficult to gauge exact pressure on places, but the school’s capacity figure provides a baseline for understanding its intake size relative to the local population.

Academically, Southfield Park Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, its most recent inspection outcome. The school does not have a published Progress 8 score, as this metric applies to secondary schools, but its primary phase performance can be benchmarked against the local authority average for Key Stage 2. Surrey’s LA average for KS2 attainment is 66, though the school’s own KS2 SATs results are not provided in the data. Among its top-performing peers in the area, South Farnham School, The Raleigh School, and Cardinal Newman Catholic Primary School lead the local rankings, with Southfield Park not appearing in that top tier. This suggests that while the school is rated Good, it may not be among the highest-achieving primaries in Surrey, but it remains a solid option within the local authority’s 298 primary schools.

The school offers a broad range of facilities including a dining hall, sports hall, outdoor playground, sensory room, forest school, music rooms, art studios, and a chapel. Sports provision covers cricket, football, rounders, swimming, tennis, athletics, and gymnastics, while extracurricular clubs include chess, art, book, eco, and science clubs. These amenities suggest a school that values both academic and personal development, with the sensory room and forest school indicating support for diverse learning needs. For families seeking a primary with strong facilities and a Good Ofsted rating in Epsom and Ewell, Southfield Park is a practical choice, though those prioritising an Outstanding rating may look to Stamford Green Primary School less than a kilometre away. The school’s mixed intake and lack of religious character make it suitable for a wide range of families.
