Rudston Primary School
Liverpool, L16 4PQ · Liverpool · primary school
77th of 106 primary schools in Liverpool we can score, 116 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 3,562 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.9/10 among them, against 2.3/10 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 | 35.0 · 5 | 40% | 0.20 |
| 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, 35.0% 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. Ofsted rated the school Good in July 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.9 out of 10 among them, against 2.3 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in the School Council, Playground Leaders, Peer Mentors, Librarians, and Rudston Child Committee. Sports include Sports Day, cycling, swimming, and Liverpool Schools Sports Partnership events. Musical instrument lessons are available. An after-school club operates, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 464 pupils in a capacity of 452 places, meaning it is over capacity by 12. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With results significantly below the national median, how does the school support pupils who are not meeting expected standards in core subjects? Since the school is over capacity, what is the current process for securing a place for a new intake? How does the after-school club integrate with the curriculum or provide additional academic support?
