St Aloysius Catholic Primary School
Liverpool, L36 2LF · Knowsley · primary school
3rd of 48 primary schools in Knowsley we can score, 50 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 — 8.7/10 against 2,302 of them, against 7.5/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 78.0 · 84 | 62% | 5.17 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 9.0 · 61 | 38% | 2.36 |
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, 78.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 9.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (8.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.5 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Art Club and play football, netball, cross country, basketball, or indoor athletics. The school also provides a breakfast club and an after-school club.
Getting in. There are 346 pupils in a school with 344 places, meaning it is over capacity by 2. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the waitlist given it is currently over capacity? What specific support is available for the 9.0% of pupils who reach the higher standard? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support daily routines?
