About Westbourne Primary School

Westbourne Primary School is a primary school in Sutton, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. Around 656 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 90% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 4.0 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 1% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 111 in reading and 115 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 53% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). 99% of the families who made Westbourne 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. The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 1.50 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 4.9%. There are about 20.4 pupils per teacher. When comparing schools, it is still worth visiting in person to see whether the atmosphere and approach suit your child.
