St Paul's Peel CofE Primary School

Manchester, M38 9RB · Salford · primary school

Mixed Primary Church of England
4.4/10 Broadly average

37th of 69 primary schools in Salford we can score, 76 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 — 6.4/10 against 675 of them, against 4.4/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 63.0 · 46 62% 2.85
Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 5.0 · 40 38% 1.55

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, 63.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 5.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (6.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.4 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils attend a Manchester Magistrate's Mock Trial. A breakfast club is available, but there is no after-school club.

Getting in. The school has 311 pupils in a capacity of 340, leaving 29 spare places. This means the school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the expected standard in maths? What provisions are available for children who need care after the school day ends? How does the mock trial experience integrate with the wider curriculum?
