Twickenham Primary Academy
About Twickenham Primary Academy
Twickenham Primary Academy was rated Outstanding in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection in 2018, and a subsequent ungraded inspection in December 2024 confirmed that the school has maintained those high standards. The school’s leadership and management, early years provision, and overall effectiveness were all judged Outstanding. When it comes to the most telling exam metric, 66% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2 in the 2023/24 academic year. That is below the Richmond upon Thames local authority average of 76%, placing the school 33rd out of 38 primary schools in the borough. Nationally, it sits in the 42nd percentile, and within London it ranks in the 64th percentile. So while the Ofsted rating is top-tier, the headline attainment figure suggests a more mixed picture compared with other schools in the area.
