Primary schools with the most pupils meeting the expected standard
Across England, 64% of Year 6 pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. At 17 schools with 20 or more pupils, every child did.
17 schools share first place on 100%, including South Farnham School in Surrey and Lowbrook Academy in Windsor and Maidenhead. The list spans 62 local authorities, and Essex has the most schools in it (5).
The school in 100th place recorded 93%, against a typical figure of 65% across all 12,268 schools that meet the rules. By region, the top 100 breaks down as London 39, South East 12 and North West 12, with every region represented.
How this ranking works
The measure is the percentage of Year 6 pupils who reached the expected standard in all three of reading, writing and maths. Where two schools have the same percentage, the one with more pupils at the higher standard is listed first, and both share the same rank.
Only schools with at least 20 pupils in Year 6 are included, because a handful of pupils can swing a small school's figures. 100 of the 12,268 schools that meet these rules are shown below. A rank with "=" is shared with another school on the same figure. Tap any school to see its full results, Ofsted grades, admissions and nearby alternatives.

Things to bear in mind
In a year group of 25, one child moves a school's figure by four percentage points, so the three-year trend on each school's page is a better guide than a single year. The expected standard is also a threshold: it says nothing about how far above it pupils went, which is what the higher-standard ranking measures.
