All the Sefton primary schools with a ‘good’ or ‘outstanding’ Ofsted rating in January 2023

These local schools in Crosby, Southport, Formby, Ainsdale, Bootle and beyond have impressed Ofsted during inspections.

Sefton is a popular area for families and has a number of brilliant primary schools.

With the deadline for applications for the next school year fast approaching (Janaury 15) we have compiled a list of those that have received the highest Ofsted rankings, of ‘good’ and ‘outstanding’, up to January 2023.

Ofsted is the regulatory body responsible for visiting schools across the country and grading them on a four-point scale.

At the bottom of the scale is ‘inadequate’, followed by ‘requires improvement’, ‘good’ and ‘outstanding’.

Grades are based on overall effectiveness, quality of education, behaviours and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management.

Please note, special schools and schools with academy status are not included.
