About Shakespeare Primary School
Shakespeare Primary School in Wyre holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024, though its previous inspection in 2013 had judged it Outstanding. The most telling academic metric for this 4-11 mixed state primary is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2: 73% of pupils achieved this benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year. That is notably above the Lancashire local authority average of 60%, placing the school in the top 25% nationally and 9th out of 35 primary schools in Wyre. The school's overall ranking score of 73 reflects solid, above-average performance, though it sits behind local top performers like Crawford Village Primary School.
