Renfrewshire Primary School League Tables 2025: The 15 best primary schools in Renfrewshire ranked according to the latest data

The Times have released their annual list ranking all the Primary Schools in Scotland in 2025 according to the latest data.

Schools submit data on the percentage of pupils up to standard in reading, writing, numeracy and combined listening-and-talking. The Times aggregates this data into a maximum score of 400.

Schools with a higher proportion of deprived pupils are weighted to rise up The Sunday Times Primary School League table to recognise their achievement in delivering a good education despite the challenges of poverty. The data, based on teacher judgment, is drawn from the same government statistics that policymakers use to make decisions about schools and nurseries in Scotland. Almost 1,200 primary schools submitted data.

There are over 2,000 primary schools in Scotland but more than a third do not submit Acel data each year.

A record 89 schools scored top marks this year, up from 85 last year and just 52 when the government first began compiling data in 2016/17. 3 schools from Renfrewshire scored a perfect mark of 400.

Only one primary school from Renfrewshire ranked in the top 10 Primary Schools in 2025. St Catherine’s has scored top marks for the third year in a row, after topping the league table in 2023.

It was displaced by Thorntree last year, a school popular among Scotland’s travelling community, but the Glasgow school fell down the table this year falling short of the top spot by 40 points.

Schools are marked against 4 categories: reading, writing, numeracy and combined listening-and-talking. Each category is scored out of 100 for a total of 400.
