Ofsted: Outstanding · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Primary Church of England
9.4/10 Well above average

1st of 54 primary schools in Stockton-on-Tees we can score, 60 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 the 848 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.4/10 among them, against 9.3/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
