St Paul's Catholic Primary School
Billingham, TS22 5LU · Stockton-on-Tees · primary school
6th of 54 primary schools in Stockton-on-Tees we can score, 60 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 2,728 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.7/10 among them, against 7.9/10 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 | 75.0 · 78 | 62% | 4.78 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 14.0 · 81 | 38% | 3.12 |
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, 75.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. A further 14.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.7 out of 10 among them, against 7.9 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Lingotots, play Multi Sports, Netball, or Football, and learn Urban Chaos street dance. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 228 pupils in a building with 196 places, meaning it is over capacity by 32. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine when operating 32 pupils over its stated capacity? What specific support is offered to help children reach the higher standard in core subjects? How does the after-school club integrate with the main curriculum for those who attend?
