Cale Green Primary School
About Cale Green Primary School
Cale Green Primary School sits in Stockport, a local authority where the average proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at Key Stage 2 is 62%. The school’s own figure of 44% is notably below that benchmark, placing it in the bottom half of primary schools in the borough — ranked 56th out of 67. That said, the picture is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects. While maths and reading expected scores (47% and 67% respectively) trail the LA average, writing tells a different story: 87% of pupils met the expected standard, a strong result that suggests the school’s approach to literacy is working well for most children. At the higher standard, the school’s combined figure of 7% is low, though 20% of pupils achieved greater depth in both reading and writing individually. So while headline metrics suggest Cale Green is below the local norm, the writing outcomes and a reading average score of 103 indicate pockets of real strength.
