Mixed Secondary Church of England
8.2/10 Well above average

1st of 13 secondary schools in Stockton-on-Tees we can score. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.

Narrow the comparison to the 444 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.5/10 among them, against 8.2/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
