Worth Primary School
Poynton, SK12 1QA · Cheshire East · primary school
98th 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 3,025 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.3/10 among them, against 4.3/10 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 | 65.0 · 52 | 40% | 2.07 |
| Ofsted | 3 | 35% | 0.11 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 3.0 · 29 | 25% | 0.73 |
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, 65.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 3.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school "Requires improvement" in March 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.3 out of 10 among them, against 4.3 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join gymnastics, musical theatre, art, and violin or cello clubs, or play football. Year 3 visits the Macclesfield Silk Museum and attends a Stone Age workshop. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 206 pupils in a capacity of 210, leaving 4 spare places. With so few vacancies, places are likely to be competitive for new applicants.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are not reaching the higher standard? What specific actions are being taken to address the "Requires improvement" rating? How does the school manage the competitive nature of its remaining places?
