Wanstead Church School
About Wanstead Church School
Wanstead Church School, a Church of England primary in Redbridge, achieves a Key Stage 2 expected standard in reading, writing and maths of 68%, which sits just below the local authority average of 74% for similar schools. This places the school 35th out of 50 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the bottom half of Redbridge's state primaries. However, the school's performance is more nuanced than this single headline metric suggests. In reading, 84% of pupils met the expected standard and 48% reached the higher standard, both notably strong figures. The average reading score of 108 is solid, and while maths is slightly lower with 76% at expected and an average score of 105, the school's overall picture is one of a decent, if not top-tier, academic performer within a competitive London borough.
