About Westbridge Academy

Westbridge Academy’s most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022 rated the school Good overall, with leadership and management and early years provision both judged Good. That’s a notable improvement from its previous graded inspection in 2017, when the school was rated Requires Improvement. On the academic front, the most telling metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined: 81% did so in the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments. That’s well above the Wandsworth local authority average of 68% for primary schools, placing Westbridge 13th out of 55 schools in the borough and in the top 10% nationally. The school also outperforms the LA average on individual subjects, with 89% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, maths and writing separately.
