Our Lady of Pity Catholic Primary and Nursery School
Wirral, CH49 1RE · Wirral · primary school
2nd 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.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 9.5/10 against 3,754 of them, against 9.5/10 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 | 86.0 · 95 | 40% | 3.79 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 24.0 · 95 | 25% | 2.38 |
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, 86.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. 24.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in January 2024. 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 (9.5 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the EM'S STARS before and after-school club and visit Martin Mere.
Getting in. The school has 397 pupils in a capacity of 448, leaving 51 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not attend the before-school club? What specific activities are included in the EM'S STARS club? How often do pupils visit Martin Mere?
