About St Paul's CofE Primary School, Nuneaton

St Paul's CofE Primary School in Nuneaton sits below the Warwickshire local authority average for Key Stage 2 outcomes, with 52% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with the LA average of 62%. That ten-point gap places the school 116th out of 196 primary schools in the county, putting it in the bottom half of its local peers. The picture is more mixed when you look at individual subjects: 72% hit the expected standard in reading and 67% in writing, but maths lags at 66%. Only 2% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects, and just 17% reached the higher bar in reading or maths. The school's ranking score of 52 places it in the bottom 50 nationally for its Key Stage 2 performance metric, though context matters — over a quarter of pupils (27.3%) are eligible for free school meals, which is well above the national average and often correlates with lower headline results.
