Beddington Park Academy at a glance

Located in Croydon, Sutton, Beddington Park Academy is a primary school, classified by the DfE as a sponsor-led academy. The school educates roughly 348 pupils aged 4 to 11. Ofsted judged the school to be 'Outstanding' at its most recent inspection. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 80% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. That is down 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 in the top 22% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 107 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 9% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Beddington Park Academy was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 32 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 5.4%. There are about 18.4 pupils per teacher. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
