St Patricks Church of England Primary Academy
Solihull, B94 6DE · Solihull · primary school
14th of 45 primary schools in Solihull we can score, 59 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 8.5/10 against 4,272 of them, against 8.5/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 | 77.0 · 82 | 40% | 3.28 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 19.0 · 90 | 25% | 2.26 |
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, 77.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 19.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2024. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (8.5 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Junior Church, Messy Church, Crew, and a Junior Choir, and learn swimming. Trips include visits to The Space Museum, Safari Park, Compton Verney, Stratford Upon Avon, Cadbury's World, The Black Country Museum, PGL, and Blackwell. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 238 pupils in a capacity of 240, leaving 2 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With only 2 places remaining, how does the school manage the waiting list if a spot opens up mid-year? How does the Junior Church club integrate with the wider curriculum? What specific support is offered for pupils who do not reach the higher standard in maths?
