Cinnamon Brow Church of England Primary School

About Cinnamon Brow Church of England Primary School

Cinnamon Brow Church of England Primary School is a state-funded, mixed primary school in Warrington for children aged 2 to 11. With a school capacity of 315, the school operates as a Church of England institution under headteacher Rachel Pimblett. While the data does not include current pupil numbers or a specific oversubscription figure, the school’s nursery provision suggests it caters to families from the earliest stages of education. In terms of local context, Warrington has 69 primary schools of the same type, and only six of those hold an Outstanding rating from Ofsted. The nearest Outstanding-rated school is St Peter's Catholic Primary School, 2.4 kilometres away, which may influence catchment-area decisions for families prioritising that grade. The school’s religious character means it may have a faith-based admissions criterion, though the data does not specify how heavily this weighs. Without a free school meals percentage in the data, it is not possible to compare Cinnamon Brow’s intake against local or national averages, but the school’s facilities — including a sensory room and chapel — point to a setting that supports both pastoral and spiritual development.

Academically, the most recent data available places Cinnamon Brow in a competitive local landscape. The local authority average for Key Stage 2 attainment in Warrington is 69, and the school’s top-performing peers include Bruche Primary School Academy (ranking score 97), Stretton St Matthew's CofE Primary School (93), and Chapelford Village Primary School (92). Without a specific Progress 8 or KS2 SATs score for Cinnamon Brow in the data, it is not possible to state its exact position relative to these peers or the LA average. However, the school’s inclusion in this local context suggests it operates within a cluster of high-performing primaries. The school does not have a sixth form, which is standard for a primary, and its official Ofsted rating is not provided in the data. Parents looking for a direct academic comparison would need to consult the school’s most recent published results or inspection report. The presence of clubs such as Coding and Film Club hints at an effort to broaden the curriculum beyond core subjects, though no exam outcomes are available to quantify this.

For practical considerations, Cinnamon Brow offers a range of facilities including a dining hall, library, gymnasium, sensory room, and chapel, which support both learning and wellbeing. Sports provision is strong, with football, cricket, netball, swimming, gymnastics, tennis, and cross country available, alongside clubs like Art Club, Coding, and Film Club. The school’s nursery provision is a key draw for families with very young children, offering continuity from age 2 through to Year 6. Without admissions data such as oversubscription rates or catchment distances, it is unclear how competitive places are, but the school’s Church of England foundation may give priority to families with a faith connection. This school is likely to suit families in Warrington who value a faith-based primary with a broad sports programme and additional support facilities like a sensory room. Those seeking an Outstanding Ofsted rating may need to look at St Peter’s Catholic Primary School 2.4 km away, but Cinnamon Brow remains a solid option within the local primary landscape.
