About West Twyford Primary School

West Twyford Primary School is a state primary in Ealing, London, serving 456 pupils aged 3 to 11 under headteacher Matthew Shapland. In the local authority’s 65-strong primary landscape, it ranks 42nd by KS2 performance, placing it in the middle tier of Ealing schools. The top-performing peers nearby are Ark Byron Primary Academy, Little Ealing Primary School and Southfield Primary School, all of which score higher on the same ranking metric. The school is non-religious and oversubscribed: for 2025/26 entry, it received 82 applications for 53 places, with 47 first-preference offers made. That oversubscription ratio of 1.55 suggests solid local demand, though it is not among the most competitive in the borough. The nearest Outstanding-rated school is Holy Family Catholic Primary School, 1.4 km away. West Twyford itself holds a Good rating from Ofsted, confirmed in an ungraded inspection in September 2023, and has maintained that grade since at least its previous graded inspection in 2013.
