About Tyntesfield Primary School
Tyntesfield Primary School sits in the Trafford local authority, a borough with 63 primary schools where ten currently hold an Outstanding Ofsted rating. The school itself is one of them, having been judged Outstanding in its most recent graded inspection in December 2024. However, when it comes to the Department for Education's primary school rankings based on the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, Tyntesfield places 55th out of 55 Trafford primaries, putting it in the bottom half nationally. The top-performing peers in the area include St Vincent's Catholic Primary School, Park Road Academy Primary School and Brooklands Primary School, all of which sit at the other end of the local league table. Tyntesfield is a mixed, non-denominational state primary for children aged 3 to 11, with a nursery on site. Kathryn Manion is the headteacher, and the school has 442 pupils on roll, just shy of its capacity of 462.
