Akiva ‘proud’ after being ranked in top 20 primary schools in UK
Akiva school has said it is ‘proud’ to be ranked in the top 20 state-primaries in the UK, following a recent table in the Sunday Times.
Akiva, in Finchley, north-west London, was ranked 14th in the country, out of 200 schools in a table released on Sunday.
Akiva Headteacher Susy Stone commented, ‘This ranking, which places us as the highest performing Jewish primary nationally, is a tribute to our lovely children, the support of their parents and the dedication of a superb team of staff and governors’.
