Every year school performance league tables are published, showing the best and worst performing schools. School performance results for primary schools are important, as parents hoping to send their children to selective secondary schools want their children to have the best schooling so they pass any entrance exams.
Buying a house or flat for sale near a good primary school has become very important for some families, to the extent where some will move home to fall in a good school’s catchment area.
