Woodfall Primary and Nursery School
Neston, CH64 4BT · Cheshire West and Chester · primary school
8th 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.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 8.6/10 against 4,312 of them, against 8.6/10 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 | 79.0 · 86 | 62% | 5.28 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 16.0 · 85 | 38% | 3.28 |
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, 79.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. A further 16.0% reached the higher standard. 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 (8.6 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in hockey, football, basketball, netball, cricket, athletics, tennis, and swimming, alongside Friday Afternoon Singing. The school provides both a breakfast club and an after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 479 pupils in a facility with 466 places, meaning it is over capacity by 13. Consequently, 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 do not reach the expected standard? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support daily routines?
