About Leigh St Mary's CofE Primary School

Leigh St Mary's CofE Primary School sits in the middle of the pack when it comes to headline primary metrics in Wigan, but with a few notable gaps. The local authority average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at Key Stage 2 is 65 per cent; at Leigh St Mary's, that figure is 57 per cent, putting the school 72nd out of 98 primary schools in the borough. That places it in the bottom half of Wigan's state primaries, and nationally it sits in the 65th percentile. However, the school's maths average score of 104 is solid, and 77 per cent of pupils hit the expected standard in maths specifically, which is a stronger showing. The picture is more mixed in reading and writing, where expected rates are 70 and 67 per cent respectively. The proportion reaching the higher standard across all three subjects is just 3 per cent, which is low, though individual subject higher rates are a bit better: 20 per cent in maths and 17 per cent in reading.
