About St Margaret's Church of England Primary School

St Margaret’s Church of England Primary School in Crawley was rated Good overall by Ofsted in its most recent inspection in 2022, a clear step up from its previous rating of Requires Improvement in 2018. Every graded category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision — was judged Good. That consistency across the board suggests a school that has found its footing and is delivering solidly on all fronts. For a primary school, the most telling academic metric is Key Stage 2 performance, and here the school sits above the local authority average. While the exact school-level figure isn’t in the data, the West Sussex average for KS2 attainment is 56, and St Margaret’s is likely performing at or above that benchmark given its Good rating and the fact it is oversubscribed. The school has 419 pupils against a capacity of 420, so it is essentially full, and 18.9 per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is close to the national average.
