St Michael and St Martin Catholic Primary School
About St Michael and St Martin Catholic Primary School
St Michael and St Martin Catholic Primary School’s headline metrics stand well above the Hounslow local authority average for primary schools. While the LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined sits at 70 per cent, this school achieves 97 per cent. That gap of 27 percentage points is substantial and places the school first out of 44 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the top five per cent nationally. It is one of only seven outstanding-rated primaries in Hounslow, a status it earned in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2023. The school is also heavily oversubscribed: for 2025/26 entry, it received 206 applications for 60 places, with 91 families listing it as their first preference. That level of demand reflects a reputation that clearly resonates with local parents, and the school’s performance data suggests why.
