About Egremont Primary School

Egremont Primary School in Wirral holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2021, with inspectors singling out behaviour and attitudes, as well as leadership and management, as Outstanding. The school’s most telling exam metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2. In the 2023/24 academic year, 60% of Year 6 pupils hit that benchmark, which sits comfortably above the Wirral local authority average of 53%. That places Egremont 25th out of 64 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the top half of local schools. The picture is more mixed when you look at the higher standard — only 5% of pupils achieved that top tier across all three subjects, though individual subject scores tell a slightly stronger story, with 24% reaching the higher standard in both reading and maths.
