About St Augustine's CofE Primary School

St Augustine's CofE Primary School in Salford was rated Good in its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022, a significant improvement from its previous overall rating of Inadequate in 2016. The inspection report awarded Good across every category, including quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management. The most telling exam metric for this primary school is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined (the RWM expected score). At 70%, this comfortably exceeds the Salford local authority average of 61%, placing the school 15th out of 65 primary schools in the borough. That puts it in the top quarter of Salford primaries and the top 30% nationally. Given that nearly half of pupils (47.4%) are eligible for free school meals, these results represent strong academic progress relative to the school's intake.
