Kingston fourth in national primary school 'league tables'

Surbiton.com: December 17, 2013 - 6:00am

Christ Church Surbiton was among the best ranked primary schools in the country.

Kingston has been narrowly pipped to the post by neighbouring Richmond as the 'best performing' borough for primary school education this year. Kingston came in fourth behind Trafford in Manchester, and Kensington and Chelsea for 2013, according the the Department for Education. St Luke’s in Acre Road was the highest ranked Kingston school, followed by Robin Hood in Bowness Crescent, Coombe Hill Juniors in Coombe Lane West and Christ Church Surbiton in Pine Gardens.

The tables measure the percentage of pupils who achieve level four or above in reading, writing and maths between the ages of seven and 11. The least best performing school in the borough was King Athelstan in Villiers Road in Kingston - which was one per cent below the national average percentage and down by 11 per cent on the previous year. Green Lane, Castle Hill and Robin Hood schools showed the largest jump in improvement from last year.

Burlington Junior School and St Joseph’s were the two primary schools that saw the biggest drop in standards from the year before. The figures were released by the Department for Education last Thursday.
