The Department for Education (DfE) has published data on primary schools' performance across 2025. Our sister title London Now has looked at how Redbridge's government funded schools were ranked.
The figures were labelled "overall performance at end of key stage 2" by the DfE and are based on the percentage of pupils meeting the expected standard as well as the percentage of pupils achieving at a higher standard.
The DfE defines a pupil as meeting the expected level if they achieve a score of 100 or more in their reading and maths tests, and their teacher assesses them as 'working at the expected standard' or better in writing.
Pupils' average scores in reading and maths were also documented.
The best performing primary school in Redbridge was Wanstead Church School in Church Path with 96 per cent of students meeting the expected standard and 17pc achieving at a higher standard.
Pupils here averaged reading and maths scores of 113 and 111 respectively - both exceeding the expected scores of 100.
St Bede's Catholic Primary School in Canon Avenue, Chadwell Heath was the second top performing primary school in the borough with 95pc of pupils meeting the expected standard and 14pc of pupils achieving higher.
St Bede's averaged a reading score of 109 and a maths score of 110.
The third top performing primary school was Gordon Primary School in Golfe Road, Ilford where 94pc of pupils met the expected standard and 36pc excelled - the second highest figure after the 38pc achieved by both Our Lady of Lourdes RC Primary School in Wanstead and Churchfields Junior School in South Woodford.
Gordon Primary School saw an average reading score of 113 and an average maths score of 114.
