About St Anne's Catholic Primary School

St Anne's Catholic Primary School is a primary school in Liverpool, classified by the DfE as a voluntary aided school with a Roman Catholic religious character. Around 233 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted (February 2026). 64% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, broadly in line with the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has fallen by 3.0 percentage points compared with the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it around the middle of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 107 in reading and 104 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 7% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made St Anne's Catholic Primary School their first choice was offered one of its 14 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 4.6%. There are about 17.3 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 57% 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. Given the recent dip in results, it may be worth asking the school what is behind the change and what is being done in response.
