Congratulations are due to Ashdene School and Lacey Green Academy for their stellar results and across Wilmslow as a whole for the latest Key Stage 2 results from the Department for Education.
Each school is marked on what percentage of pupils are achieving at a ‘higher standard’.
A pupil is deemed to be achieving at a higher standard if they manage a scaled score of 110 or more in their reading and maths test, and their teacher assesses them as “working at a greater depth within the expected standard” in writing.
Wilmslow’s Ashdene Primary School and Lacey Green Primary Academy had the joint highest average maths score – 111.
Each school is also given a progress score for reading, writing and maths.
This score shows how much progress pupils at this school made between the end of Key Stage 1 and the end of Key Stage 2.
A score above zero means pupils made more progress, on average, than pupils across England who got similar results at the end of Key Stage 1, while a score below zero means pupils made less progress.
Yet again Lacey Green performed well, with the highest progress score for maths (6.2) and the second highest in reading.

In a statement published alongside the figures, the DfE says “School performance data should be considered alongside a range of other information about the school, which could include looking at school websites, reading Ofsted reports, and speaking to the school directly. Conclusions should not be drawn on a single piece of data alone.”
