St Anne's Catholic Primary School
About St Anne's Catholic Primary School
St Anne’s Catholic Primary School in Cheshire East holds a Good rating from Ofsted following its most recent graded inspection in 2020, and an ungraded visit in 2025 confirmed that standards are being maintained. The school’s strongest area is personal development, which inspectors rated Outstanding. However, the headline exam metric tells a more mixed story. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, just 47% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined. That is well below the local authority average of 64% and places the school 100th out of 123 primary schools in Cheshire East. On the individual subjects, 67% met the expected standard in maths, 63% in reading and 63% in writing. At the higher standard, 20% achieved it in maths, 17% in reading and none in writing. The average scaled scores were 105 in maths and 104 in reading, both slightly above the national benchmark of 100.
