Four Oaks Community Primary School

About Four Oaks Community Primary School

Four Oaks Community Primary School sits in a challenging position compared with the Liverpool local authority average for primary schools. The LA average for Key Stage 2 attainment stands at 59, but Four Oaks’ most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022 rated its overall effectiveness as Requires Improvement, with the quality of education and early years provision both marked at the same level. The school serves a community with high levels of disadvantage — 52.2 per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, more than double the national average for primary schools. Despite these headwinds, the inspection found personal development and behaviour and attitudes to be Good, suggesting the school is managing pastoral care effectively even while academic delivery needs work. The school is oversubscribed for 2025/26, with 52 applications for 39 places and 28 first-preference offers, indicating strong local demand from families who value what the school offers beyond raw attainment figures.
