About St Leonard's CofE Primary School

St Leonard's CofE Primary School sits slightly above the Shropshire average for primary schools on the key measure of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. The school recorded 61% achieving that combined benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year, compared with the local authority average of 59%. That two-point gap is modest but consistent with a school that performs reliably, if not spectacularly, within its county. In the Shropshire rankings, it places 41st out of 88 primary schools, putting it just inside the top half. Nationally, it sits around the 55th percentile, which suggests a solidly average performance relative to schools across England. The school is a Church of England primary with a mixed intake of 266 pupils, and its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2022 confirmed it remains Good, a rating it has held consistently across its previous graded inspections.
