About St Anne's and St Joseph's RC Primary School, A Voluntary Academy

St Anne's and St Joseph's RC Primary School in Hyndburn received an Inadequate rating from Ofsted in its most recent graded inspection in January 2023, a significant downgrade from its previous Requires Improvement judgement in 2019. The inspection report paints a stark picture: leadership and management, quality of education, and early years provision were all rated Inadequate, while personal development and behaviour and attitudes were judged as Requires Improvement. This is a school that has clearly struggled, and the data backs that up. With only 129 pupils on roll against a capacity of 210, the school is operating well below its potential, and 35.4% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average. The school's most informative exam metric is its Key Stage 2 performance, which sits at 60% achieving the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, exactly matching the Lancashire local authority average. That is a solid, unremarkable result, but it does not tell the full story of a school that Ofsted found to be failing in core areas.
