About Ladybrook Primary School

Ladybrook Primary School is a primary school in Stockport, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 242 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. The school holds an 'Outstanding' judgement from Ofsted. 83% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well above 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 among the top 12% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 110 in reading and 108 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 14% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Ladybrook Primary School is oversubscribed: about 7 in 10 of the families who made it their first choice were offered a Reception place for September 2026, with 37 first choices for 30 places. In 2026 the furthest child offered a place lived 0.92 miles from the school in a straight line, according to the council's published allocation figures; the distance changes every year with demand. Overall pupil absence was 3.7%. There are about 20.0 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 3% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. When comparing schools, it is still worth visiting in person to see whether the atmosphere and approach suit your child.
