Stockton-on-Tees, TS19 7AJ · Stockton-on-Tees · secondary school
8th 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 924 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.0/10 among them, against 4.4/10 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 | 47.8 · 60 | 30% | 1.81 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.38 · 22 | 25% | 0.55 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 45.6 · 49 | 10% | 0.49 |
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, 47.8% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 45.6, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.38 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than peers nationally who started from the same place. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 3.0 out of 10 among them, against 4.4 out of 10 nationally.
Getting in. The school has 1165 pupils in a capacity of 1185, leaving 20 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With only 20 places remaining, how does the school manage waitlists for new intakes? Since the Progress 8 score is below 0, what specific support is offered to pupils who are falling behind in their first year? How does the school maintain its Good Ofsted rating while addressing the gap in progress compared to similar schools?
