About St John Fisher Catholic Primary School

St John Fisher Catholic Primary School sits comfortably above the Ealing local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 76 per cent of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 71 per cent. That five-point gap places the school in the top 25 per cent of primaries in the borough, ranked 23rd out of 65. Its maths average score of 108 is notably strong, and 84 per cent of pupils met the expected standard in maths specifically. Reading and writing both hit 84 per cent expected or above, though the proportion reaching the higher standard in reading (16 per cent) and writing (13 per cent) is more modest. The school’s most recent graded Ofsted inspection, in 2017, rated it Good overall, with leadership and management also judged Good. A subsequent ungraded inspection in 2022 confirmed the school remains Good. That’s a step down from its previous Outstanding rating in 2011, but the school has held a Good rating across both its recent inspections.
