About St John's Wood Primary School

St John's Wood Primary School holds a Good rating from Ofsted, with its most recent ungraded inspection in February 2025 confirming that standards are being maintained. The school's most telling academic metric is its Key Stage 2 combined reading, writing and maths expected standard, which sits at 76% of pupils. That figure is just two percentage points above the Westminster local authority average of 74%, placing the school 16th out of 31 primary schools in the borough. While it doesn't break into the top tier of local primaries — the three highest-ranked schools all achieved a perfect ranking score of 100 — St John's Wood is a solidly performing state option in a competitive London borough. Its national ranking places it in the top 19% of all primary schools in England, and within London it sits in the top 35%.
