About Florence Melly Community Primary School

Florence Melly Community Primary School sits in a strong position compared with the Liverpool local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes. The school achieved a 63% rate of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, against a LA average of 59%. That four-point gap might not sound enormous, but it places the school 42nd out of 102 primary schools in Liverpool, comfortably inside the top half. The school also outperforms the LA average in individual subjects: 76% of pupils hit the expected standard in reading, 69% in writing and 69% in maths. At the higher standard, 18% of pupils reached that level in reading, 15% in maths and 8% in writing. The school’s average scaled scores of 103 in both reading and maths are solid, though the data doesn’t include progress measures, so it’s hard to say how much value the school adds relative to pupils’ starting points.
