About All Saints Church of England Primary School, Stand

All Saints Church of England Primary School, Stand sits within Bury local authority, a borough with 64 primary schools where only two currently hold an Ofsted Outstanding rating. The school itself ranks 23rd out of 46 primaries in Bury on the key stage 2 expected standard measure, placing it in the top half of local schools. Among its closest peers in the authority, the top three are Emmanuel Holcombe Church of England Primary School, Sunny Bank Primary School, and Chantlers Primary School, all of which score higher on the same ranking metric. All Saints is a state-funded Church of England primary for mixed-gender pupils aged 3 to 11, with a nursery on site. Headteacher Michaela Farrell leads a school that is noticeably oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, 55 families applied for just 20 places, with 17 first-preference offers made. That oversubscription ratio of 2.75 to one suggests strong local demand, even if the school does not top the LA league tables.
