About schools in Hammersmith and Fulham
- How many schools are there in Hammersmith and Fulham?
- Hammersmith and Fulham has 78 open schools — 43 primary, 16 secondary, 6 special, 4 nursery, teaching 25,796 pupils in total.
- How many schools in Hammersmith and Fulham are rated Good or Outstanding?
- 58 of the 58 schools holding an Ofsted grade — 100% — are rated Good or Outstanding, including 24 rated Outstanding. That share is measured against graded schools, not all 78: a school inspected since September 2024 has no overall grade at all.
- What is the average Academic Performance in Hammersmith and Fulham?
- 7.6 out of 10, averaged across the 64 schools here that can be scored, where 5 is the national average. Academic Performance combines the Ofsted judgement with DfE attainment and is ranked against comparable schools, so it is neither figure on its own.
- Why do some Hammersmith and Fulham schools have no Ofsted rating?
- 20 schools in Hammersmith and Fulham currently hold no overall grade. Ofsted stopped awarding single-word judgements in September 2024 and moved to a report card of separately graded areas, so schools inspected since then have no overall rating whatever the inspection found. Their profiles show the report card instead.
- What does Hammersmith and Fulham local authority do?
- A local authority is the body responsible for state education in its area — the level most admissions and school-place decisions are made at. Hammersmith and Fulham covers 78 schools and sits in the London region. It does not run academies or independent schools directly, though it still coordinates admissions for most of them.
- How many pupils in Hammersmith and Fulham are eligible for free school meals?
- 30.4% — 5,989 of 19,701 pupils at the 58 schools that report it. Independent schools file a return with roll and sex only, so they are outside this figure rather than counted as zero.
