Forest Park Primary School
Stoke-on-Trent, ST1 5ED · Stoke-on-Trent · primary school
41st of 64 primary schools in Stoke-on-Trent we can score, 71 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 5.4/10 against 516 of them, against 3.5/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expected standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 61.0 · 41 | 40% | 1.66 |
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 2.0 · 24 | 25% | 0.60 |
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, 61.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 2.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Good in November 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (5.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.5 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Eco Warriors, Forest School, and swimming. There is no breakfast club or after-school club.
Getting in. The school has 459 pupils in a capacity of 472, leaving 13 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With 13 places remaining, how does the school handle waitlists if demand exceeds capacity? Since there is no wraparound care, what options exist for parents needing support before or after school hours? How does the school support pupils who are below the expected standard in core subjects?
