Pott Shrigley CofE Primary School
Macclesfield, SK10 5RT · Cheshire East · primary school
99th 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 3,686 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.9/10 among them, against 1.6/10 nationally. 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 | 50.0 · 19 | 40% | 0.76 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 0.0 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
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, 50.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. No pupils reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in September 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.9 out of 10 among them, against 1.6 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils access outdoor pursuits, Forest School trips, and arts activities including recorder and brass lessons, dance, and Halle programmes. The school has neither a breakfast club nor an after-school club.
Getting in. With 26 pupils in a school built for 42, there are 16 spare places. The school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who do not reach the expected standard? What provision exists for children needing care before or after school hours? How does the small class size affect the range of activities offered?
