Bradley Stoke Community School
Bristol, BS32 9BS · South Gloucestershire · all-through school
2nd of 16 secondary schools in South Gloucestershire we can score. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to the 542 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.9/10 among them, against 7.6/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 56.4 · 77 | 30% | 2.30 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.34 · 75 | 25% | 1.88 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 50.6 · 73 | 10% | 0.73 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 56.4% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 50.6, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.34 in 2023/24, indicating better progress than pupils nationally who started from the same place. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.9 out of 10 among them, against 7.6 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join choir, coding, book club, art club, gardening club, drumming, and yoga groups. Sports options include karate, football, multi-sports, and dance. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 1389 pupils in a capacity of 1335, meaning it is over capacity by 54. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being over capacity by 54 places? What support is available for pupils who need help catching up, given the Progress 8 score? How does the after-school club operate for families who need wraparound care?
