Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Secondary
5.5/10 Broadly average

40th of 88 secondary schools in Birmingham we can score, 89 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 — 7.6/10 against 204 of them, against 5.6/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

What Ofsted said about Stockland Green School

Inspection report dated 31 March 2023

Overview

Stockland Green School continues to be a good school, where leaders have created a ‘family’ approach that ensures all pupils are welcomed and valued. Pupils are happy, feel safe, and achieve well within an environment characterised by high expectations and a focus on personal development.

Strengths

  • Leaders have created an ambitious curriculum with careful sequencing so that "new knowledge builds on prior learning."
  • Teachers possess secure subject knowledge and use routines like ‘do now’ activities to help pupils remember what they have learned.
  • Positive behaviour is celebrated, notably through ‘Feel Good Fridays’, and pupils behave well in lessons and around the site.
  • Leaders actively promote wider personal development, with most pupils taking part in extra-curricular clubs and enrichment activities.
  • Staff morale is high, and leaders work hard to promote staff well-being.

Areas to improve

  • Some teachers do not always check if pupils have learned key concepts, allowing misconceptions or gaps in learning to persist.
  • Some pupils at an early stage of reading do not receive sufficient support to become fluent and confident readers in a timely manner.

Safeguarding

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective, with leaders ensuring it is of the highest priority through regular training, vigilant staff, and tenacious follow-up of concerns.
