About St Winifred's RC Primary School, a Voluntary Academy

St Winifred's RC Primary School in Stockport is a state-funded Roman Catholic primary for mixed-gender pupils aged 4 to 11, with a school capacity of 420 places. While the data does not provide current pupil numbers or free school meal percentages, the school's most recent Ofsted inspection in December 2024 rated it as Requires Improvement overall, a significant shift from its previous Outstanding rating in 2014. This change in grading may influence local demand, though the data does not include specific admission oversubscription figures. The school serves a community within Stockport local authority, where only 7 out of 86 primary schools currently hold an Outstanding rating, meaning families seeking top-rated alternatives may look to Alexandra Park Primary School, located 2 km away. As a voluntary academy with a Roman Catholic character, the school likely prioritises faith-based admissions, but without explicit admission criteria in the data, parents should verify this directly with the school.
