- Is Aldro full?
- Aldro has capacity for 260 pupils and 202 on roll (78%), so it has space against its published capacity. Places are allocated through the local authority's admissions process, so capacity alone does not tell you whether a place is available.

- Does Aldro publish exam results?
- OfferDay shows exam results for a school only where the Department for Education has published them, and none are shown for Aldro. That is usual for infant, nursery, special and independent schools, and for schools without recent published results.
