About St Andrew's CofE Primary School

St Andrew's CofE Primary School in Warrington sits slightly below the local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 63% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to the Warrington average of 69%. That places the school 39th out of 69 primary schools in the borough, putting it in the lower half of its local peers. But the picture is more nuanced than a single headline figure suggests. In maths, 73% of pupils hit the expected standard, and the average scaled score of 102 is solid. Reading and writing both saw 67% of pupils reach the expected level, with average reading and maths scores both sitting at 102. Where the school really stands out is in behaviour and attitudes — Ofsted rated this area Outstanding in its most recent inspection in 2023, a significant strength that sets it apart from many local primaries.
