About St George's Church of England Primary School

St George's Church of England Primary School in Southwark holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023, a grade it has maintained since its previous inspection in 2018. The inspection report highlights a particular strength in personal development, which was judged Outstanding. However, the school’s academic outcomes present a more challenging picture. At Key Stage 2 in the 2023/24 academic year, just 52% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. This is notably below the Southwark local authority average of 68% and places the school 54th out of 67 primary schools in the borough. Only 8% of pupils achieved the higher standard in all three subjects, and the school ranks in the bottom 50 nationally for this combined measure.
