About Tetherdown Primary School

Tetherdown Primary School is a primary school in London, Haringey, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 392 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 73% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — above the national average of 61%. That is down 6.0 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 among the top 15% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 111 in reading and 109 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 17% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Tetherdown Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 43 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 4.5%. There are about 21.6 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 5% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Tetherdown 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.
