About Stockton Heath Primary School

Stockton Heath Primary School sits comfortably above the Warrington local authority average for primary schools when it comes to the key measure of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. The school’s 76% achieving that benchmark in the 2023/24 academic year compares favourably with the LA average of 69%, placing it 18th out of 55 primary schools in the borough. That puts it in the top third locally and the top quarter nationally, a solid performance for a state primary of its size. The school is oversubscribed, with 115 applications for 57 places in 2025/26 and 50 first-preference offers, which suggests local families are voting with their feet. Its most recent Ofsted inspection in January 2024 confirmed the school remains Good, an improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2013. Leadership and management, early years provision and overall effectiveness were all rated Good, with no outstanding judgements but a clear upward trajectory.
