About Winterbourne Junior Girls' School

Winterbourne Junior Girls' School is a state primary for girls aged 7 to 11 in the London borough of Croydon, where it ranks fifth out of 77 primary schools on the key stage 2 expected standard measure. That places it comfortably in the top 10% of Croydon primaries, behind only Heathfield Academy, St John's CofE Primary School and Applegarth Academy among its local peers. The school is led by headteacher Mary Berkeley-Agyepong and serves 255 pupils, with a capacity of 328. Just under 40% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, a figure well above the national average, reflecting the school's inclusive intake. Its most recent Ofsted inspection, in May 2024, rated the school Good overall, with Outstanding marks for personal development and for behaviour and attitudes. Leadership and management, along with quality of education, were both judged Good. The previous inspection in 2017 also rated the school Good overall, with leadership and management Outstanding at that time.
