New Longton All Saints CofE Primary School
Preston, PR4 4XA · Lancashire · primary school
36th 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 2,728 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.5/10 among them, against 9.0/10 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 | 83.0 · 92 | 40% | 3.67 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 17.0 · 87 | 25% | 2.18 |
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 17.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2025. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.5 out of 10 among them, against 9.0 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in Sing Up and the Carol Service. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 217 pupils in a capacity of 210 places, meaning it is over capacity by 7. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With the school operating over its stated capacity, how does the admissions process handle new applications for the next academic year? Since the inspection was recent, what specific improvements have been made to the curriculum since the January 2025 visit? How do the breakfast and after-school clubs integrate with the main school day for families needing wraparound support?
