About Gospel Oak Primary School

Gospel Oak Primary School is a primary school in London, Camden, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 424 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. 68% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 9.0 percentage points compared with the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it around the middle of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 107 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 5% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). 96% of the families who made Gospel Oak Primary School their first choice were offered a Reception place for September 2026, even though the school made at least as many offers as it had first choices - the rest withdrew, moved or fell outside a priority group. Overall pupil absence was 6.1%. There are about 18.7 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 37% 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. Gospel Oak Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
