62nd of 123 primary schools in Manchester we can score, 137 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 5.0/10 against 845 of them, against 3.5/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 56.0 · 30 | 40% | 1.18 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.82 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 6.0 · 45 | 25% | 1.12 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about All Saints C of E Primary School
Overview
All Saints C of E Primary School continues to be a good school, described as a "friendly and welcoming" environment where pupils are proud to attend. The report highlights a positive climate for learning, with staff setting high standards and ensuring pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve well.
Strengths
- Pupils benefit from a "broad and ambitious curriculum" and are encouraged to be "determined and resilient in their learning."
- Teachers are skilled at sharing subject knowledge and "successfully identifying and addressing pupils’ misconceptions."
- Leaders have implemented effective systems for teaching reading, using books that "closely match the sounds that they know" to develop phonics quickly.
- Staff provide suitable training to adapt the curriculum for pupils with SEND, ensuring they have access to the same "ambitious curriculum and extra-curricular activities as their peers."
- Pupils learn about diversity, human rights, and keeping themselves safe, developing a "high level of tolerance and respect."
Areas to improve
- In a few subjects, leaders have not fully defined the important knowledge pupils should know, hindering teachers' ability to design activities that help pupils develop "deep and interconnected knowledge."
- A minority of pupils do not attend school regularly enough, preventing them from benefiting from the same learning opportunities as their peers; leaders and governors must work together to improve these attendance rates.
Safeguarding
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with leaders ensuring it is a priority for all staff and governors, who are trained to be vigilant and act immediately on concerns.
