Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
4.2/10 Broadly average

256th of 448 primary schools in Lancashire we can score, 481 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 the 4,248 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.7/10 among them, against 3.7/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

What Ofsted said about Coupe Green Primary School

Inspection report dated 2 May 2024

Overview

Coupe Green Primary School continues to be a good school, providing a "warm and welcoming" environment where pupils are "happy, feel safe and are well supported." The school maintains high expectations for achievement, resulting in a "calm and purposeful atmosphere" that supports learning. Pupils demonstrate positive attitudes towards their education and uphold central values of "respect and kindness."

Strengths

  • The school has established a "well-structured curriculum that is ambitious for all pupils," including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), ensuring they are "well prepared for the next steps in their learning."
  • Reading is prioritised with "high-quality delivery of phonics" in the early years; staff use effective assessment strategies to identify and support those who struggle, helping pupils become "confident and fluent readers."
  • Pupils with SEND are "identified early," allowing families to access necessary support, which parents "recognise and value."
  • Behaviour is positive, with pupils being "polite, respectful and welcoming," creating an environment "free from distractions for the majority of the time."
  • Staff benefit from a "positive and supportive culture" and training, while governors have a "knowledgeable and accurate understanding of the quality of education."

Areas to improve

  • The school provides "limited leadership opportunities for pupils to take on roles and responsibilities," which restricts aspects of personal development such as gaining leadership skills or learning to work as part of a team.
