St Sebastian's Catholic Primary School and Nursery
Liverpool, L7 0LH · Liverpool · primary school
57th 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 5.5/10 against 1,979 of them, against 4.6/10 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 | 63.0 · 46 | 62% | 2.85 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 6.0 · 45 | 38% | 1.72 |
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 6.0% reached the higher standard. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (5.5 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.6 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs including Crafts & Story Time, Tech Club, Chess, and Book Club. They participate in Indoor Athletics, Choir, Dance, and Music & Movement. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 238 pupils in a capacity of 262 places, leaving 24 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 need extra help to reach the higher standard? What specific activities take place during the after-school club? How does the school manage the transition for children arriving without a breakfast club option?
