Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School
About Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School
Holy Trinity Church of England Primary School in Cheltenham sits in a tricky spot academically when you line it up against the Gloucestershire local authority average. At Key Stage 2, the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths combined was 48%, which is noticeably below the LA average of 59%. That eleven-point gap is significant and places the school in the bottom half of primary schools locally — ranked 151st out of 243. Its ranking within Cheltenham itself is even starker: 19th out of 22 schools. The school's average reading score of 104 and maths score of 101 are both around the national baseline, but the proportion hitting the higher standard in reading (16%) and maths (10%) is modest. For parents focused squarely on headline attainment, this isn't a school that competes with the top performers in the area.
