About The Winns Primary School

The Winns Primary School in Waltham Forest delivers above-average academic outcomes compared with other primary schools in the borough. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, 76% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, while the local authority average sits at 74%. That two-percentage-point gap might seem modest, but it places The Winns 20th out of 48 primaries in Waltham Forest, comfortably in the top half of the league table. Nationally, the school ranks in the top 18% of all primaries for this combined measure. The school also outperforms the LA average in individual subjects: 83% of pupils met the expected standard in reading (LA average not given, but the school's 107 average scaled score is solid), 85% in maths (average score 106) and 87% in writing. Higher-attaining pupils are less common here — only 11% achieved the higher standard across all three subjects — but the school's strength clearly lies in getting the majority of children securely to the expected level.
