About Holy Cross Catholic Primary School

Holy Cross Catholic Primary School is a primary school in Liverpool, Liverpool, classified by the DfE as a voluntary aided school with a Roman Catholic religious character. Around 219 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. 52% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, below the national average (national figure: 61%). Performance is little changed year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 103 in reading and 102 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 10% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 43% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Holy Cross Catholic Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links further down the page.
