Oldfield Primary School
About Oldfield Primary School
Oldfield Primary School sits in Cheshire West and Chester, a local authority where the average Key Stage 2 score for primary schools is 61. The school itself doesn't publish its own KS2 results in the data we have, so it's not possible to say whether it beats or trails that LA benchmark. What we do know is that its most recent Ofsted inspection, in 2023, rated the school Good overall — the same grade it received in its previous graded inspection back in 2013. That consistency is worth noting, especially given that only 14 of the 128 primary schools in the authority are rated Outstanding. The nearest Outstanding-rated school, St Martin's Academy Chester, is 1.3 km away, so families prioritising that top grade may have a nearby alternative, but Oldfield's sustained Good rating suggests reliable provision.
