Prenton Primary School
Prenton, CH43 0RQ · Wirral · primary school
64th 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.
Narrow the comparison to the 4,025 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.0/10 among them, against 1.9/10 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 | 53.0 · 24 | 40% | 0.96 |
| Ofsted | 8 | 35% | 0.26 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
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, 53.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in February 2026. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.0 out of 10 among them, against 1.9 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in the School Council, Eco-team, and Rotakids, and play tennis. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 393 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 27 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. With 27 places remaining, how quickly do these fill up for new starters? Since the school lacks a morning provision, what options exist for early drop-off? How does the curriculum support pupils who are currently at the expected standard to progress to the higher standard?
