About Starks Field Primary School

Starks Field Primary School in Enfield holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across its two most recent inspections. The most telling academic metric comes from the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results, where just 19% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. This figure sits well below the Enfield local authority average of 67%, and places the school at the very bottom of the borough’s 59 primary schools in the rankings. The picture is similarly challenging in individual subjects: 32% reached the expected level in reading, 39% in writing and 39% in maths. Only a handful of pupils achieved the higher standard in any of the three subjects — 13% in reading, 3% in writing and 10% in maths. The average scaled scores of 100 in both reading and maths are exactly in line with the national benchmark, but the low combined expected rate suggests many children are not progressing across all three disciplines simultaneously.
