About Ringway Primary School

Ringway Primary School’s combined Key Stage 2 results sit well below the Manchester local authority average. Across the borough, 57% of pupils reach the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, but at Ringway that figure is just 38%. That 19-percentage-point gap places the school 117th out of 137 primary schools in Manchester, firmly in the bottom quarter locally. Nationally, the school’s ranking score of 38 puts it in the bottom 50% of all primaries. However, the picture is not uniformly weak. In maths, 68% of pupils met the expected standard and the average scaled score of 102 is in line with national norms, suggesting this subject is a relative strength. Reading and writing are where the school struggles more, with only 53% and 45% reaching the expected level respectively, and no pupils achieved the higher standard in either writing or the combined RWM measure.
