Red dashed line = one first choice per place. How to read this

The cut-off distance is how far the last child offered a place lived, not a catchment boundary: it moves every year with the number of applicants. Published by the council in its 2026 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it.

Application figures: DfE, school level applications and offers (2026 intake).

About Rockmount Primary School

Rockmount Primary School is a primary school in London, Croydon, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 449 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. 82% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well above the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has risen by 5.0 percentage points year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 8% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 111 in reading and 108 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 18% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Rockmount Primary School is oversubscribed: about 5 in 10 of the families who made it their first choice were offered a Reception place for September 2026, with 107 first choices for 59 places. In 2026 the furthest child offered a place lived 0.31 miles from the school in a straight line, according to the council's published allocation figures; the distance changes every year with demand. Overall pupil absence was 4.3%. There are about 21.1 pupils per teacher. Rockmount 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.
