About Pikemere School

When you compare Pikemere School’s Key Stage 2 results against the Cheshire East local authority average, the picture is clearly positive. The LA average for pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 64%, but Pikemere’s figure sits at 71% — a noticeable seven-point advantage. That gap widens further in maths, where 84% of Pikemere pupils hit the expected standard against the LA average of 64%, and in reading the same 84% figure applies. The school also achieves a higher-than-average proportion of pupils working at greater depth in reading (29%) and maths (23%), though no pupils reached the higher standard in writing. With a reading average scaled score of 106 and a maths average of 105, Pikemere is performing comfortably above the national baseline of 100. This consistency across core subjects suggests a school that delivers solid academic outcomes relative to its peers in the borough.
