About St Teresa's Catholic Primary School, Preston

St Teresa's Catholic Primary School in Preston holds a Good rating from its most recent Ofsted inspection in 2019, a clear step up from the Requires Improvement it received in 2017. The inspection report highlights Good leadership and management, and Good early years provision, suggesting the school has found its footing under headteacher James Kay. When it comes to academic outcomes, the most telling metric is the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined at Key Stage 2: just 37% did so in the 2023/24 academic year. That is significantly below the Lancashire local authority average of 60%, and it places the school 43rd out of 45 primary schools in Preston. Nationally, it sits in the bottom 7% of schools for this measure. The picture is mixed when you look at individual subjects: 73% of pupils met the expected standard in maths, and the average maths score was 103, but only 50% did so in writing and 63% in reading.
