St Gregory's Catholic Academy
Stoke-on-Trent, ST3 2QN · Stoke-on-Trent · primary school
3rd 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 — 9.3/10 against 2,336 of them, against 8.3/10 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 | 78.0 · 84 | 40% | 3.36 |
| Ofsted | 96 | 35% | 3.37 |
| Higher standard (RWM) 2024/25 | 14.0 · 81 | 25% | 2.03 |
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, 78.0% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing, and maths, compared to the national median of 64%. Only 14.0% reached the higher standard. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in July 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.3 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join dance clubs and play football, athletics, tag rugby, netball, cricket, cross-country, hockey, and rounders. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 462 pupils in a capacity of 472 places, leaving 10 spare places. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the high demand for the remaining 10 places? What support is available for pupils who do not reach the higher standard? How does the after-school club operate on days with no breakfast provision?
