Our Lady and All Saints Roman Catholic Primary School, Parbold
Wigan, WN8 7HD · Lancashire · primary school
2nd 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.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 9.9/10 against 2,805 of them, against 9.9/10 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 | 100.0 · 100 | 40% | 3.99 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 29.0 · 98 | 25% | 2.44 |
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, 100.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 29.0% 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 (9.9 out of 10 either way). Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in June 2024.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs including Ukelele, SATs Club, Lego, Ocarina / Recorder, Craft, Scooting Stars, and Outdoor and Adventurous Activities. Sports cover rounders and athletics. Trips include an overnight outdoor excursion, a 5-day residential at Tower Wood, and a Class 3 visit to Rock and River. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 106 pupils in a capacity of 140, leaving 34 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths? What specific activities are included in the overnight outdoor excursion? How are the 34 spare places managed to ensure class sizes remain small?
