About this school
Star Eldon Primary will be a primary academy in Preston. It teaches children aged 2 to 11.
Ofsted will inspect it once it opens.
Ofsted judgement
Star Eldon Primary has not been inspected by Ofsted yet. It opened in its current form in December 2026, and new or converted schools usually wait a few years for their first inspection.
Before converting it was Eldon Primary School. The history below belongs to that predecessor school, not to the school as it runs today.
Predecessor school: Eldon Primary School (closed November 2026)
Overall judgement at the last full inspection
This inspection took place under the previous framework, which gave a single overall grade. Ofsted now publishes report cards instead, so newer inspections of other schools will look different. How Ofsted report cards work
- Quality of education
- Requires improvement
- Behaviour and attitudes
- Good
- Personal development
- Good
- Leadership and management
- Inadequate
- Early years
- Good
- Safeguarding
- Effective
Ofsted placed the school in a category of concern: serious weaknesses.

Results reflect each school's cohort as much as its teaching, and free school meals share is context, not a judgement. Small gaps between neighbouring schools are rarely meaningful on their own.
