Putney schools scored well above the borough average for the three tests of 236. These were: Our Lady of Victories (295 out of a possible aggregate score of 300); All Saints (289); St Mary's (282); Brandlehow (256); Hotham (252).

Cabinet member for education Malcolm Grimston said, "This year's English results are exceptional. Staff and pupils deserve the highest praise for this achievement. Wandsworth schools are now improving at a faster rate than the rest of the country and have again delivered the best results for comparable south London Boroughs.

"Across the borough well over three-quarters of pupils are achieving the required standard in all three subjects compared to just half in 1996. Once again parents can see just how well Putney schools are doing. To have so many high performing primaries in one area is immensely encouraging."
