About Little Hoole Primary School

Little Hoole Primary School sits comfortably above the Lancashire local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 68% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 60%. That eight-point gap is a solid indicator that this school is delivering above the norm for its area. In the South Ribble district specifically, the school ranks 15th out of 35 primary schools, placing it in the top half locally. Nationally, it sits around the 35th percentile, which is respectable for a village primary. The school's Progress 8 scores aren't available, but the raw attainment data tells a clear story: pupils are leaving with stronger results than many of their peers across Lancashire.
