About St Patrick's Catholic Primary School

Around 238 pupils aged 3 to 11 attend the school. 66% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, above the national average (national figure: 61%).

Getting a place is straightforward: for the September 2026 intake every family who made St Patrick's Catholic Primary School their first choice was offered one of its 30 Reception places. There are about 23.5 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 11% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. St Patrick's Catholic 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.
