St Francis' Catholic Primary School

About St Francis' Catholic Primary School

St Francis' Catholic Primary School sits comfortably above the local authority average for its key stage 2 headline measure, with 80% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined against a Newham average of 74%. That six-point gap is a solid indicator that this school is delivering above the typical primary in the borough. Its ranking of 21st out of 61 Newham primaries places it in the top third locally, and nationally it sits in the top 11% of all primary schools on the same metric. The school also performs well on higher standards: 9% of pupils achieved the higher benchmark in all three subjects, while 30% hit the higher mark in maths alone. These figures suggest a school that is not just coasting at the expected level but pushing a meaningful proportion of children further. The context matters here — St Francis' serves a community where 41% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average, so these results represent genuine added value.
