Marton and District CofE Aided Primary School

Macclesfield, SK11 9HD · Cheshire East · primary school

Ofsted: Good · 2022 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
4.7/10 Broadly average

69th 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.

Narrow the comparison to the 4,360 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.4/10 among them, against 4.5/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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, 57.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 10.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in November 2022. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.4 out of 10 among them, against 4.5 out of 10 nationally.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in the Congleton Football League, Cross Country, Netball League, Quicksticks Tournament, Sports Hall Athletics, Basketball, Swimathon, and the Santa Dash. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.

Getting in. The school has 189 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving 21 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are below the national median in core subjects? What specific activities take place during the breakfast and after-school clubs? How does the school maintain its Good rating following the 2022 inspection?
