Christ The King RC Primary School
Manchester, M28 3DW · Salford · primary school
8th of 69 primary schools in Salford we can score, 76 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 — 9.5/10 against 4,269 of them, against 9.2/10 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 | 89.0 · 97 | 40% | 3.88 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 15.0 · 84 | 25% | 2.09 |
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, 89.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 15.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2025. 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 (9.5 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.2 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the GIFT Team, CARITAS Ambassadors, Drawing Club, Book Club, Yoga and Wellbeing, Band Club, and Film Club. Sports include netball, cross country, football, athletics, and girls football. There is no breakfast or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 234 pupils in a capacity of 241, leaving 7 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive without a breakfast club? What specific steps are taken to secure a place given the limited availability? How does the recent inspection feedback influence current teaching strategies?
