The Trinity Catholic School A Voluntary Academy
Nottingham, NG8 3EZ · Nottingham · secondary school
5th of 18 secondary schools in Nottingham we can score, 19 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 — 7.9/10 against 924 of them, against 7.3/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 59.2 · 81 | 30% | 2.43 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.1 · 57 | 25% | 1.43 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 55.3 · 86 | 10% | 0.86 |
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, 59.2% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 55.3, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.1 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did better than those nationally who started from the same place. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (7.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.3 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2025.
Getting in. The school has 1190 pupils in a capacity of 1125, meaning it is over capacity by 65. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With the school 65 places over capacity, how does the admissions process handle oversubscription for new starters? Since the last inspection was in January 2025, what specific improvements have been made since then? How does the school support pupils to maintain the progress seen in the 2023/24 data?
