About Stanton Road Primary School

Stanton Road Primary School is a primary school in Wirral, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. Around 291 pupils aged 2 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 52% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — below the national average of 61%. That is down 12.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on 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 106 in reading and 105 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 12% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Stanton Road Primary School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 24 families who put it first were offered a place. Overall pupil absence was 4.9%. There are about 18.3 pupils per teacher. Stanton Road 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 above.
