About St Wulstan's Catholic Primary School

St Wulstan's Catholic Primary School in Newcastle-under-Lyme holds a Good rating from Ofsted, a grade it has maintained across both its most recent graded inspection in 2013 and an ungraded inspection in 2025 that confirmed standards are still being kept up. The strongest single measure of its academic performance comes from the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 results, where 81% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That figure sits well above the Staffordshire local authority average of 65% and places the school 5th out of 35 primary schools in the Newcastle-under-Lyme area, putting it in the top 10% locally. Nationally, it ranks in the top 10% of all primary schools, a strong showing for a state primary. The school's average scores in reading and maths both sit at 108, and while the proportion reaching the higher standard in reading is a solid 53%, the figure for writing at the higher level is notably lower at 7%, and just 3% of pupils achieved the higher standard across all three subjects.
