About Outwood Primary School

Outwood Primary School is clearly a popular choice among local families. For the 2025/26 intake, the school received 65 applications for just 19 places, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.42. Of those applications, 17 were first-preference choices, and the school was able to offer places to all of them. While the school does not publish a parent recommendation percentage, the high demand suggests strong satisfaction among families who know it. The school is led by headteacher Jenni Maude and caters to 204 pupils aged 3 to 11, operating very close to its capacity of 210. It also offers a nursery provision, which is a practical bonus for families with younger children. The school is non-religious and co-educational, making it a straightforward option for a broad range of families in the Stockport area.
