Euxton Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School

Ofsted: Outstanding · 2023 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
8.2/10 Well above average

26th 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 2,805 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.0/10 among them, against 7.5/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 72.0 · 71 40% 2.83

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, 72.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 14.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in November 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.0 out of 10 among them, against 7.5 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in the Daily mile, Parachute games, Yoga, climbing frame, and Gladiators course, alongside Hindu Art sessions. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.

Getting in. The school has 209 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving just 1 spare place. With so few vacancies, securing a spot is likely to be competitive for new applicants.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the transition for new starters when there is only one place available? What specific support is offered to help pupils progress from the expected standard to the higher standard? How are the daily physical activities integrated into the timetable?
