Academic Performance

Below is a snapshot of the academic attainment of our Year 6 children from 2022 to 2024. 

Here is St John's KS2 performance summary, with results displayed against the national expected standard from 2022 to 2024. These results cover the first three years since the pandemic and highlight the resilience and achievements of our pupils during this challenging period.

We are proud of all our children, and while the pandemic continues to have some impact, our outcomes reflect the dedication of pupils, the unwavering support of parents, and the hard work of our staff.


Attainment is only one aspect of how we support our children to live “life in all its fullness”, but it remains a crucial area in which we strive to excel.


There can be a range of factors that influence the data in these performance tables. Percentages alone may not fully reflect the true quality of a school. Ofsted recognises that progress data in junior schools often appears less positive than in primary schools, but this does not indicate that pupils are achieving any less than their peers elsewhere.


The vast majority of our children achieve in line with or above national averages and go on to attend excellent secondary schools across South West London and Surrey.

2024 Results


Our 2024 SATs results are a testament to the resilience and determination of this cohort. Despite some pupils requiring additional support for SEN and SEMH needs, and the ongoing impact of disrupted learning during the pandemic, our pupils worked hard to achieve their best. The school provided targeted interventions and collaborated with families and external agencies to ensure every child was supported. These results reflect the dedication of our staff and the strength of our school community in helping pupils thrive, even in the face of challenges.

We are very proud of the experience and quality of education the children receive at St John's and we would encourage any prospective parents to tour the school and hear about all that our school is currently doing to see all our children flourish, both academically and in their personal and social development.

Financial Performance

It is a requirement of all schools to share a link to the schools financial benchmarking service for you to compare our school's spending to other similar schools.

There is always a detailed backstory behind all figures and it is the role of our governing body to understand this story and hold the leadership team to account.

It is also a requirement to share any members of staff who earn £100,000 or over. There are no members of staff in this category.
