School overview

Childs Hill Primary School is a primary school serving London, Barnet, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. It has 458 pupils aged 3 to 11 on roll. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 56% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — broadly in line with the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 2.0 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 103 in reading and 103 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 8% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Childs Hill Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 22 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 5.5%. There are about 18.2 pupils per teacher. Childs Hill 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.
