About The Quinta Primary School

The Quinta Primary School is a primary school in Congleton, Cheshire East, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. Around 481 pupils aged 2 to 11 attend the school. The school holds a 'Good' judgement from Ofsted. 65% of its pupils met the expected standard in reading, writing and maths at the end of Key Stage 2, broadly in line with the national average (national figure: 61%). The proportion reaching the expected standard has risen by 3.0 percentage points year on year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 32% of primary schools nationally.

Pupils achieved an average scaled score of 106 in reading and 106 in maths (national averages are about 105 and 104). 13% reached the higher standard across all three subjects (around 8% do so nationally). The Quinta Primary School is oversubscribed: about 9 in 10 of the families who made it their first choice were offered a Reception place for September 2026, with 68 first choices for 60 places. In 2026 the furthest child offered a place lived 1.67 miles from the school in a straight line, according to the council's published allocation figures; the distance changes every year with demand. Overall pupil absence was 4.3%. There are about 32.9 pupils per teacher. Its intake is relatively advantaged, with around 10% of pupils eligible for free school meals in the last six years versus about 24% nationally. When comparing schools, it is still worth visiting in person to see whether the atmosphere and approach suit your child.
