About Tudor Court Primary School

Tudor Court Primary School is a state primary in the Thurrock local authority, and it sits comfortably in the upper half of the local league table. Among the 39 primary schools in the borough, it ranks 14th, placing it in the top 25% nationally by its key stage 2 performance metric. The three highest-scoring peers in Thurrock are Quarry Hill Academy, Chadwell St Mary Primary School, and St Mary's Catholic Primary School, all of which outrank Tudor Court on the local scoring system.

Tudor Court itself holds a Good rating from its most recent graded inspection in 2023, a grade it has maintained since at least its previous inspection in 2013.

Academically, Tudor Court delivers solid results at key stage 2, with 74% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths combined. That figure sits comfortably above the Thurrock local authority average of 67%. In reading, 83% met the expected standard and 36% reached the higher standard, with an average scaled score of 107. Maths followed a similar pattern: 86% at expected, 36% at the higher threshold, and an average score of 107. Writing was slightly lower, with 78% at expected and 12% at the higher level. Only 9% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects. The school’s Ofsted report from March 2023 awarded an Outstanding rating for behaviour and attitudes, while quality of education, early years provision, personal development, and leadership and management were all judged Good. No progress scores are available for reading, writing, or maths, so it is not possible to compare pupil progress against national benchmarks.

The school is oversubscribed for the 2025/26 academic year, with 148 applications for 62 places and 59 first-preference offers, giving an oversubscription ratio of 2.39. Facilities include a library, forest school, ICT suite, art studios, and a chapel. Sports on offer are athletics, tennis, cricket, and netball, and clubs include eco club, coding, and gardening. Tudor Court has a broad range of SEND provisions, covering specific learning difficulties such as dyslexia, moderate learning difficulty, social, emotional and mental health needs, speech, language and communication needs, and autistic spectrum disorder. This combination of strong core results, a Good Ofsted with an Outstanding behaviour rating, and a wide SEND offer makes the school a solid choice for families in Thurrock who want a well-structured primary with good academic outcomes and a supportive environment for children with additional needs.
