Centre Academy London
London, Wandsworth, Greater London · SW11 1SH
Founded in 1974 and now one of the smallest schools in Wandsworth, Centre Academy London serves around 50 pupils in a deliberately intimate setting. With mixed entry from age 11 and no boarding, it operates on a scale that allows close attention to each child. The headline academic figures sit well below national averages, which reflects the kind of pupil the school is set up to support rather than a measure of conventional selectivity. Families considering it should view it as a specialist, individualised environment rather than a mainstream academic hothouse.

Teaching & academics
The school's average Attainment 8 score of 7.2 stands far below the national figure of 46.9, and just 7 per cent of pupils achieve grade 5 or above in English and Maths against a national average of 47 per cent. These numbers point to a cohort whose needs differ from a typical mainstream intake, and the very small roll suggests teaching is tailored closely to individual pupils. Parents will want to discuss directly how progress is measured and supported for their own child.
