Peel Hall Primary School

Manchester, M38 0BZ · Salford · primary school

Ofsted: Requires improvement · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
1.7/10 Well below average

62nd of 69 primary schools in Salford we can score, 76 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 3.9/10 against 527 of them, against 2.5/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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, 54.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 2.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in July 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (3.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 2.5 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils visit Lledr Hall Residential Centre, Prestatyn Holiday Camp, Tatton Hall, Stockport Museum, and Salford Museum and Art Gallery. A breakfast club is available, but there is no after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 416 pupils in a capacity of 480, leaving 64 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 reach the expected standard in maths? What provisions are in place for children who need care after the school day ends? How has the "Requires improvement" rating influenced recent teaching changes?
