Great Meols Primary School
Wirral, CH47 7AP · Wirral · primary school
10th of 74 primary schools in Wirral we can score, 90 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 2,183 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.2/10 among them, against 7.8/10 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 | 75.0 · 78 | 40% | 3.11 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 13.0 · 78 | 25% | 1.94 |
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, 75.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 13.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in December 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.2 out of 10 among them, against 7.8 out of 10 nationally.
Getting in. The school has 467 pupils in a building with 459 places, meaning it is over capacity by 8. This means places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With the school operating over its stated capacity, how does the admissions process handle new requests? Since the inspection was in late 2023, what changes have been made to the curriculum since then? How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard in core subjects?
