Based on the most recent published single-word Ofsted grades. Ofsted stopped issuing overall grades (Outstanding, Good, Requires Improvement, Inadequate) in September 2024, so schools inspected more recently — under Ofsted’s report cards — may not have one. Figures cover the 41 of 103 schools here that have a published grade.

Lambeth has 103 schools across 4 towns — 58 primary, 15 secondary, educating around 36,905 pupils. 85% of schools with a published Ofsted grade are rated Good or Outstanding (35 of 41).
