Lunts Heath Primary School
Widnes, WA8 9RJ · Halton · primary school
1st of 47 primary schools in Halton we can score, 49 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 — 9.3/10 against 4,151 of them, against 9.3/10 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 | 84.0 · 93 | 62% | 5.73 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 20.0 · 92 | 38% | 3.53 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 84.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 20.0% reached the higher standard. 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 (9.3 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Reading Buddies, Library Champions, and Playleaders clubs. They participate in The Daily Mile and Sports Day. Music lessons cover ukelele, guitar, keyboard, flute, recorder, violin, and drum kit. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 419 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 1 spare place. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With only 1 place remaining, how does the school manage waiting lists for new starters? How do the breakfast and after-school clubs integrate with the main curriculum? What specific support is offered to pupils who do not reach the expected standard?
