Ofsted: Outstanding · 2024 Inspected 1 year ago Mixed Primary
9.1/10 Well above average

5th of 71 primary schools in Stockport we can score, 86 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 2,520 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.0/10 among them, against 8.8/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 83.0 · 92 40% 3.67
Ofsted 96 35% 3.37
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 14.0 · 81 25% 2.03

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, 83.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 14.0%. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in September 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.0 out of 10 among them, against 8.8 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.

Getting in. There are 241 pupils in a school with 210 places, meaning it is over capacity by 31. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the waitlist given it is 31 pupils over capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support daily routines?
