Schools in Stoke on Trent

About schools in Stoke on Trent

Stoke on Trent lists three schools, most of them special and alternative provision schools. Its one secondary school is where pupils go on to after primary.

Ofsted inspects every school listed here. Its newer reports judge a school across several areas rather than giving one overall grade, while older reports still carry the previous single grade, so read the framework and the date on each page before you set two schools side by side. Where results have been published you will also find each secondary school's Attainment 8 score. An inspection or a results table captures a school at one past moment, so use this page to draw up a shortlist and then visit.
