About Saughall All Saints Church of England Primary School

Saughall All Saints Church of England Primary School sits slightly below the local authority average for its key stage 2 headline measure, with 59% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined against a Cheshire West and Chester average of 61%. That three-percentage-point gap is modest, and the school’s overall Ofsted rating of Good, upgraded from Requires Improvement in its previous graded inspection, suggests a school that has steadied itself. The 2023 ungraded inspection confirmed it remains Good, with leadership and management, early years provision and behaviour all judged Good. The school ranks 64th out of 110 primary schools in the LA, placing it in the bottom half locally, though its national percentile of around 60 puts it broadly in line with the middle of the pack across England. For parents weighing up options, the headline figure is worth noting, but the detail underneath tells a more nuanced story.
