About St Mary's Catholic Primary School

St Mary's Catholic Primary School sits comfortably above the local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 77% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the Enfield average of 67%. That ten-point gap places the school 12th out of 59 primaries in the borough, putting it in the top 25% nationally. The school’s ranking score of 77 reflects consistent performance across the three core subjects, though it falls short of the very top tier locally — the three highest-ranked schools in Enfield all score 87 or above. Still, for a school where 39.2% of pupils are eligible for free school meals — well above the national average — these results suggest strong value added. The school is Roman Catholic and mixed, serving children from age 3 to 11, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in November 2023 rated it Good across every category: quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and early years provision.
