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 Perivale Primary School

Perivale Primary School is a primary school in Greenford, Ealing, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 452 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 53% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — below the national average of 61%. That is down 5.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 104 in reading and 103 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 7% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Competition for places is real here - 89% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (66 first choices for 60 places). The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 0.57 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 5.5%. There are about 26.6 pupils per teacher. Perivale 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.
