About Co-op Academy Grove

Co-op Academy Grove, a state primary for pupils aged 7 to 11 in Stoke-on-Trent, posts academic results that sit below the local authority average. In the 2023/24 Key Stage 2 assessments, 47% of pupils reached the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined, compared with a LA average of 60%. That places the school 50th out of 71 primaries in the borough, in the bottom half of the local rankings. The gap is consistent across individual subjects: 58% hit the expected level in reading (LA average 60%), 54% in maths (LA average 60%), and 63% in writing (LA average 60%). At the higher standard, just 3% of pupils achieved the top mark in all three subjects, and only 13% did so in maths. These figures suggest a school where many children are working at or below age-related expectations, though the context of high disadvantage — 42.5% of pupils are eligible for free school meals — is an important factor to weigh.
