About St. Mary's Catholic Primary School Euxton

St Mary's Catholic Primary School Euxton sits comfortably above the local average for its key stage 2 results, with 79% of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared to a Lancashire average of 60%. That 19-point gap puts the school in the top 25% nationally for this metric and ranks it 6th out of 46 primary schools in Chorley. The school's reading and maths average scores of 107 and 106 respectively are both solid, though the proportion of pupils achieving the higher standard in reading, writing and maths combined is just 3%, which is low. Writing at the higher standard is also at 3%, while maths fares better at 31% and reading at 41%. So while the school is strong at getting most children to the expected level, stretching the highest achievers across all three subjects is an area where it performs less strongly.
