Argyle Primary School at a glance

Located in London, Camden, Argyle Primary School is a primary school, classified by the DfE as a community school. The school educates roughly 278 pupils aged 3 to 11. Ofsted judged the school to be 'Good' at its most recent inspection. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 81% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%.

On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 17% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 107 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 11% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 62% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
