A primary school in Penge has apologised to parents after some of its SATs results were cancelled over cheating fears.
The Department for Education scrapped the results of some Year 6 pupils of Harris Primary Academy Kent House.
Harris Federation, which manages the school in Penge High Street, said it will take the “toughest possible action” where necessary.
A spokesman said: “The Standards and Testing Agency cancelled some of the results for a proportion of the former Year 6 cohort of Harris Primary Academy Kent House.
“The academy wrote to parents to apologise. We are determined to understand what may have occurred and have begun a formal investigation.
"No stone will be left unturned by our investigation and we will not hesitate to take the toughest possible action wherever this is appropriate."
This comes just one month after SATs from a Harris academy in north London were held up because the school had "mishandled the tests".
A letter from Harris Academy Philip Lane was sent to parents admitting pupils were "over-aided in their English reading and maths reading papers".
