About St Peter's Roman Catholic Primary School, Rochdale

St Peter's Roman Catholic Primary School in Rochdale holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in March 2025, but the detail behind that grade tells a more nuanced story. The school was not given an overall effectiveness judgement this time around, though inspectors rated behaviour and attitudes and personal development as Outstanding. Academically, the key metric to look at is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2. In the 2023/24 academic year, that figure stood at 53 per cent, which is below the Rochdale local authority average of 58 per cent. The school ranks 31st out of 52 primary schools in the borough on this measure, placing it in the bottom half locally. That said, individual subject results are stronger: 84 per cent of pupils met the expected standard in maths, and average scores in both reading and maths were 105, exactly in line with the national average.
