Mixed Secondary Church of England
0.7/10 Well below average

13th of 14 secondary schools in Stoke-on-Trent we can score, 15 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 — 1.3/10 against 386 of them, against 0.7/10 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
MeasurePercentileWeightAdds
Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 19.4 · 3 46% 0.15
Progress 8 2023/24 -0.58 · 12 38% 0.48
Attainment 8 2024/25 34.4 · 5 15% 0.08

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, 19.4% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 34.4, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.58 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than those nationally who started from the same place. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (1.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 0.7 out of 10 against all schools).

Getting in. The school has 1052 pupils in a capacity of 1050 places, meaning it is over capacity by 2. 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 for new admissions? What support is available for pupils whose Progress 8 score is below the national baseline? How does the curriculum address the gap between the school’s Attainment 8 and the national median?
