Cheslyn Hay Primary Academy
Walsall, WS6 7JQ · Staffordshire · primary school
102nd of 217 primary schools in Staffordshire we can score, 309 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 5.5/10 against 4,258 of them, against 5.7/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 71.0 · 68 | 40% | 2.73 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 5.0 · 40 | 25% | 1.00 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 71.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared with the national median of 64%. Only 5.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2024. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (5.5 out of 10 against similar schools, 5.7 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in tag rugby, golf, netball, hockey, cricket, multi-skills, and athletics. The school does not offer a breakfast club or an after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 450 pupils in a building with 419 places, meaning it is over capacity by 31. This means places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the daily routine for children who arrive before the official start time, given there is no breakfast club? What support is available for pupils who do not reach the expected standard by the end of Key Stage 2? How does the school ensure all children can access the wide range of sports offered?
