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

Every child who put Edison Primary School first was offered a place in 2026, so no distance cut-off applied: living further away did not cost a place that year.

About Edison Primary School

Edison Primary School is a primary school in Hounslow, classified by the DfE as a free school. Around 380 pupils aged 4 to 11 attend the school. 66% 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 4.0 percentage points compared with the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 28% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 104 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 14% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Edison Primary School their first choice was offered one of its 36 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 6.2%. There are about 25.3 pupils per teacher. Edison 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.
