Westminster Community Primary School
Ellesmere Port, CH65 2ED · Cheshire West and Chester · primary school
75th of 117 primary schools in Cheshire West and Chester we can score, 128 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 — 3.9/10 against 1,053 of them, against 2.9/10 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 | 61.0 · 41 | 40% | 1.66 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
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, 61.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 0.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (3.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 2.9 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join clubs including Colour and Chat, STEM, and Forest School. Sports options cover Multi Sports, Athletics, and Girls’ Football. Trips visit locations such as London, Anglesey, and Shropshire. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.
Getting in. The school has 147 pupils in a capacity of 140, meaning it is over capacity by 7. 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 pupils who have not yet reached the expected standard in maths? How are the daily trips to places like London organised for safety and supervision?
