About The Quinta Primary School

The Quinta Primary School’s headline Key Stage 2 results sit just below the Cheshire East local authority average, but the gap is narrow enough to warrant a closer look. Across the LA, the average percentage of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths is 64%, while Quinta’s figure is 62%. That two-point difference places the school 64th out of 113 primary schools in the borough, landing it in the bottom half of the local rankings. However, the school’s individual subject scores tell a more nuanced story. In reading, 86% of pupils met the expected standard and 45% reached the higher standard, with an average scaled score of 109. Maths followed a similar pattern: 84% at expected and 40% at higher, with an average score of 107. Writing was the weaker area, with 64% at expected and just 3% at the higher level. So while the headline combined figure trails the LA average, Quinta’s reading and maths outcomes are solidly above typical national benchmarks.
