## Ofsted category of concern

At its inspection on 19 June 2024 (Ofsted graded inspection (previous framework)) this school was placed in the category "special measures". Ofsted judged the school to be failing to give its pupils an acceptable standard of education, and not to have the capacity to make the necessary improvements without help. Schools do leave these categories, so this is not a statement of where the school stands today. Check that with Ofsted.

## How many families applied

In the 2025 intake, 164 families named this school as their first preference, and it made 201 offers.

That is 0.82 first preferences per place offered, at Year 7. This describes demand. It is not a pass rate and not a prediction.

More families are naming it first. Across the 5 most recent years held, first preferences per place averaged 0.72 in 2021–2022 and 0.83 in 2024–2025.

| Intake year | First preferences | Offers made | First preferences per place |
|---|---:|---:|---:|
| 2025 | 164 | 201 | 0.82 |
| 2024 | 181 | 212 | 0.85 |
| 2023 | 184 | 226 | 0.81 |
| 2022 | 215 | 243 | 0.88 |
| 2021 | 143 | 255 | 0.56 |
| 2020 | 168 | 236 | 0.71 |
| 2019 | 167 | 228 | 0.73 |
| 2018 | 143 | 205 | 0.70 |

## Catchment area

Stockport publishes an admission area for this school.

It overlaps the areas of Harrytown Catholic High School, St Anne's RC Voluntary Academy, so an address inside it may be in more than one area.

Living inside a published area is not an offer of a place. Councils use these areas in different ways: some to decide who gets a place when a school is full, some only to decide who gets free school transport. The shape is drawn to about 20 metres, so it cannot answer a question about a single house.

"Retrieved" is the day we downloaded the data, not the day it was written, so a figure can be about an earlier year.
