I know

In half [of] the elementary schools in London, [English is not a native language for] over half of the pupils.
And in high schools the number is not much lower―40 percent [of pupils do not claim English as their native language].
Your last sentence was okay, however, you can use it as a variant when you are speaking aloud. It does not make much sense in formal writing aka essays
