St Paul’s is a larger than average voluntary controlled primary school in the heart of Withington Manchester.

There are 354 pupils on roll which includes a 39 place nursery. The motto of St Paul’s CE Primary School is ‘Caring about learning, learning about caring’ and this underpins the work of the school.

Whilst the school is situated in Withington ward, almost half of our pupils come from Old Moat Ward which has higher levels of social deprivation. We have a very mixed intake with just over 20% of the pupils claiming free school meals and 60% of children from ethnic minority groups with 35% EAL.

We were last inspected in May 2013 and have a judgement of Good.
