Wesley Methodist Primary School

About Wesley Methodist Primary School

Wesley Methodist Primary School’s headline KS2 results sit slightly below the Bury local authority average, but the gap is narrower than it first appears. The school’s proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined is 60%, compared with the LA average of 64% — a difference of just four percentage points. That places Wesley 30th out of 46 primary schools in Bury, putting it in the bottom half of the local league table. However, the picture is more nuanced when you look at individual subjects. In reading, 79% of pupils hit the expected standard, and in writing and maths that figure is 74% for both — all respectable scores. Where the school really falls short is at the higher standard: only 5% of pupils achieved greater depth in reading, writing and maths combined, and just 5% in writing alone. For families weighing up options, Wesley is a solid, middle-of-the-road performer rather than an academic standout.
