About St Richard's Church of England Primary School

St Richard's Church of England Primary School in Richmond upon Thames holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent inspections. The school's most recent graded inspection took place in 2014, and an ungraded inspection in November 2023 confirmed that it "remains Good." The most telling academic metric for this primary school is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2. In the 2023/24 academic year, 65% of pupils achieved this benchmark. That figure sits below the local authority average of 76% for Richmond upon Thames, placing the school 34th out of 38 primary schools in the borough. Nationally, it ranks in the 44th percentile among all state primaries, which puts it broadly in line with the middle of the national distribution.
