It has 179 pupils aged 4 to 11 on roll. 59% 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%).

Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made Worlebury St Pauls Church School their first choice was offered one of its 16 Reception places. Overall pupil absence was 6.1%. There are about 26.4 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 10% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. Worlebury St Pauls Church 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.
