About SS Peter and Paul Catholic Primary School, South Shields

SS Peter and Paul Catholic Primary School’s headline KS2 results sit well below the South Tyneside average, with 52% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined against a local authority average of 64%. That 12-point gap places the school 31st out of 37 primaries in the borough, firmly in the bottom half. On individual subjects, writing is the strongest area at 68% meeting the expected level, while reading and maths both sit at 61%. Higher-attaining pupils are scarce: just 3% achieved the higher standard across all three subjects, and only 10% did so in maths. The school’s average scaled scores are 103 in reading and 101 in maths, both below the national average. For parents comparing headline metrics, this school clearly faces an uphill battle relative to its neighbours, though the data does not include progress scores, so it is unclear how much value the school adds from pupils’ starting points.
