With Key Stage 2 performance levels also reaching the expected standards.

Every day they show an outstanding commitment to working with each other and with parents to deliver the very best education for our pupils. As someone who attended local schools I am incredibly proud of Hounslow’s national success despite the challenges we know our education sector is facing. And most of all, I congratulate our young people on their hard work and achievements.”
