What the figures show
- Every applicant was offered a Reception place in 2026, but places ran out in all 7 earlier years, and the last distance offered swung sharply between some years.
- In 2026, Reception had 40 first-choice applications for 50 offers, which is 0.8 first choices per offer, the 5th lowest of 50 Havering primary schools.
- In 2024/25, 75% met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths (England 62%) and 22% reached the higher standard (England 8%).
- That 75% for 2024/25 was the 3rd highest of 8 schools: this one and the 7 of the 8 nearest primary schools in Havering that have results.
