St Edmund's Catholic Primary School
About St Edmund's Catholic Primary School
St Edmund's Catholic Primary School in Enfield holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections. The school's most recent graded inspection took place in 2017, and an ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed that it 'remains Good'. The most telling academic metric for this primary school is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2. In the 2023/24 results, 51% of pupils achieved this benchmark. That figure sits well below the Enfield local authority average of 67%, placing the school 57th out of 59 primary schools in the borough. Nationally, it ranks in the bottom quarter of all schools for this measure. The school's overall ranking score of 51 puts it in the bottom 50% of schools nationally, and it is one of only nine schools in Enfield rated Outstanding by Ofsted, though St Edmund's itself has not reached that top tier.
