Queen's Park CofE/Urc Primary School
St Helens, WA10 4NQ · St. Helens · primary school
16th of 52 primary schools in St. Helens we can score, 54 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 — 7.9/10 against 1,502 of them, against 6.3/10 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 | 72.0 · 71 | 40% | 2.83 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 7.0 · 51 | 25% | 1.27 |
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, 72.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 7.0% reached the higher standard. An Ofsted inspection in March 2023 rated the school Good. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (7.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 6.3 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Lego Club, Orchestra, Drawing Club, Quidditch, Squash Club, Crafty Club, or Board Games Club, and play football. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 375 pupils in a capacity of 420, leaving 45 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who arrive late due to the lack of a breakfast club? What specific steps are taken to help the 7.0% of pupils who reach the higher standard? How does the recent Good inspection influence current teaching strategies?
