St Mary's CofE Primary School

About St Mary's CofE Primary School

St Mary’s CofE Primary School hits the Islington average for KS2 performance exactly, with 68% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths — the same figure as the local authority average for primary schools. That places it 22nd out of 39 primaries in the borough, right in the middle of the pack. But the school’s context matters here: 55.8% of its 163 pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average, so achieving parity with the LA benchmark is a solid result. The school’s Progress 8 scores aren’t available in the data, but the raw KS2 scores tell a more detailed story. In reading, the average scaled score is 106, and 36% of pupils hit the higher standard — a strong showing. Maths is slightly lower, with an average score of 104 and 20% reaching the higher threshold. Writing sees 28% at the higher level. So while the headline figure is in line with the local average, the school is pulling pupils up from a higher-needs starting point, which is worth noting.
