About St Mary's CofE Primary School
St Mary's CofE Primary School is a primary school in Market Drayton, Staffordshire, classified by the DfE as a converter academy with a Church of England religious character. Around 51 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. 44% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, well below the national average (national figure: 61%). 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 98 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made St Mary's CofE Primary School their first choice was offered one of its 7 Reception places. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 8% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. St Mary's CofE 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.
