Oxton St Saviour's CofE Primary School

About Oxton St Saviour's CofE Primary School

Oxton St Saviour's CofE Primary School sits within the Wirral local authority, where the average Key Stage 2 score for primary schools is 53. The school's own data does not provide a specific KS2 score, so a direct numerical comparison isn't possible here. However, its most recent graded Ofsted inspection in 2019 rated the school Good overall, with leadership and management, early years provision, and quality of education all judged Good. This places it in the majority of Wirral primaries, as only six out of 90 schools in the authority hold an Outstanding rating. The nearest Outstanding school, Mersey Park Primary, is 1.7 km away. The school's ungraded inspection in December 2024 noted that some aspects are not as strong, suggesting the school is being monitored but has not yet been regraded. This contrasts with its previous Outstanding rating from 2009, indicating a shift in performance over time.

Academically, the school's most recent graded inspection in 2019 found the quality of education to be Good, with pupils achieving well across the curriculum. The school does not publish its own Progress 8 or KS2 SATs results in the data provided, so it is not possible to compare its outcomes against the Wirral average of 53. The Ofsted report from that inspection highlighted that pupils make strong progress in reading, writing, and mathematics, with teaching that is consistently good. The early years provision was also rated Good, with children making good progress from their starting points. The school's previous Outstanding rating in 2009 suggests a history of high performance, but the most recent graded inspection shows a more measured picture. Without published exam data, parents would need to request the school's own performance tables or speak to the headteacher, Louise Grant-Jones, for specific attainment figures.

The school occupies a site with a range of facilities including a gymnasium, library, playing fields, art studios, music rooms, an outdoor playground, a sports hall, and a chapel, reflecting its Church of England foundation. Sports offered include athletics, swimming, cross country, tennis, and gymnastics, and there are clubs for chess, eco, gardening, and coding. The school has a capacity of 220 pupils and does not offer nursery provision or a sixth form. It is a mixed, state-funded primary for ages 4 to 11. With a Good Ofsted rating and a broad set of facilities, this school would suit families looking for a well-resourced primary with a Christian character, particularly those who value a strong extracurricular programme. The lack of published exam data means parents should seek out the school's most recent results to gauge academic performance against the local average.
