About St Cuthbert's Catholic Primary School, Stockton

St Cuthbert's Catholic Primary School in Stockton sits slightly above the local authority average for its key stage 2 results, with 67% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths compared with 66% across Stockton-on-Tees. That one-percentage-point edge places the school 26th out of 55 primaries in the borough, squarely in the middle of the pack. But the real story is in the higher-achieving end: only 3% of pupils hit the higher standard in all three subjects, well below what you might hope for from a school that otherwise performs in line with its neighbours. In maths specifically, 37% reached the higher threshold, while reading and writing higher scores sat at 27% and 10% respectively. The school's average scaled scores of 105 in maths and 104 in reading are solid but unremarkable. For parents weighing up options, this is a school that gets most children to where they need to be, but isn't pushing a significant number beyond that.
