About St Patrick Catholic Primary School

St Patrick Catholic Primary School sits well above the Leeds local authority average for primary schools when it comes to Key Stage 2 outcomes. The LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 61%, but at St Patrick’s that figure is 71%. That ten-percentage-point gap is a meaningful one, and it places the school 57th out of 204 primary schools in Leeds, putting it comfortably in the top 30% of its local authority. The school’s ranking score of 71 reflects solid, consistent performance rather than headline-grabbing extremes. It’s worth noting that while the school is outperforming the LA average, it’s not among the very highest scorers in Leeds — the top three primaries in the area all have ranking scores of 87 or above. Still, for a school with a relatively high proportion of pupils eligible for free school meals (39.5%), these results suggest effective teaching and strong pupil support.
