Warrington, WA1 3TT · Warrington · primary school
5th of 57 primary schools in Warrington we can score, 69 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 10.0/10 against 3,733 of them, against 9.9/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 | 97.0 · 100 | 40% | 3.98 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 29.0 · 98 | 25% | 2.44 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 97.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 29.0%. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (10.0 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.9 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Good in March 2023.
Getting in. The school has 243 pupils in a capacity of 210, meaning it is over capacity by 33. Places are competitive because the school exceeds its stated capacity.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine with 33 more pupils than its official capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths? How does the school ensure all pupils have access to extracurricular opportunities despite the high enrolment?
