About St Mary's CofE Nursery and Primary School

St Mary's CofE Nursery and Primary School sits comfortably above the local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 81% of its pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a Wandsworth average of 68%. That 13-point gap places the school 12th out of 55 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the top quarter locally and the top 10% nationally. Its ranking score of 81 puts it just behind the top three peers in the area — Sheringdale, Ronald Ross and Rutherford House — but still well within striking distance of the borough's best. The school's most recent Ofsted inspection, in 2021, rated it Good overall, with a standout Outstanding grade for personal development. That's a notable shift from its previous inspection in 2007, when it was rated Outstanding across the board; the current judgement reflects a more measured but still strong picture.
