Lacey Green Primary Academy

Wilmslow, SK9 4DP · Cheshire East · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary
7.5/10 Above average

15th of 114 primary schools in Cheshire East we can score, 123 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 — 8.6/10 against 3,967 of them, against 8.8/10 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.

Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 79.0 · 86 40% 3.43

Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 20.0 · 92 25% 2.30

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, 79.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. The higher standard was reached by 20.0%. Ofsted rated the school Good in February 2024. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (8.6 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.8 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils join cookery, special craft sessions, and treasure hunts, alongside ball games, skipping, and bike riding. Art and painting are offered, with trips to Petty Pool, Robinwood, and Boreatton Park. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.

Getting in. The school has 433 pupils in a building with 420 places, meaning it is over capacity by 13. Consequently, places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the 13-pupil overage on a daily basis? What specific support is available for the 20% of pupils who do not reach the higher standard? How are the breakfast and after-school clubs structured to support learning?
