About Antrobus St Mark's CofE Primary School

Antrobus St Mark's CofE Primary School is a small Church of England primary in Cheshire West and Chester, and its headline Key Stage 2 results present a mixed picture compared with the local authority average. While 50% of pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — below the LA average of 61% — the school’s maths scores are notably strong. Every single pupil (100%) reached the expected standard in maths, and half achieved the higher standard, which is a solid result. Reading also performed well, with 83% reaching the expected level and half hitting the higher threshold. Writing was the weaker area: 67% met expectations and none reached the higher standard. This suggests a school where maths teaching is a clear strength, but where literacy outcomes, particularly writing, lag behind the broader picture.
