About Wigley Primary School

Wigley Primary School is a primary school in Chesterfield, Derbyshire, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 53 pupils aged 5 to 11 attend the school. In the most recent Key Stage 2 SATs, 83% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined — well above the national average of 61%. That marks an improvement of 20.0 percentage points in the proportion reaching the expected standard on the previous year, though small year groups can make these figures swing sharply from year to year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it among the top 9% of primary schools in England.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 105 in reading and 108 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 17% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). Wigley Primary School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links further down the page.
