Primary schools in Manchester, ranked

The 252 primary schools here are ranked by the share of pupils who reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths in 2024/25, from the Department for Education's published results.

Exam results are one part of the picture, and rankings never include Ofsted judgements: inspections from different eras cannot fairly be compared. Special schools and independent schools are not ranked, because their published figures do not compare fairly either. Each school's own page has its inspection history and context.
