About St George and St Martin's Catholic Academy

St George and St Martin's Catholic Academy is a state primary school in Stoke-on-Trent, serving 240 pupils aged 3 to 11. It sits in the middle of the local authority's rankings, coming 31st out of 63 similar schools. The top-performing primaries in the area — Goldenhill Primary Academy, Newstead Primary Academy, and Co-op Academy Glebe — all share a ranking score of 90, which gives a sense of the benchmark for high achievement locally. The school is Roman Catholic in character and led by headteacher Dawn Farmer. It is oversubscribed: for the 2025/26 intake, there were 44 applications for 30 places, with 26 first-preference offers made. That oversubscription ratio of 1.47 suggests a solid local reputation, though it is not among the most competitive in the LA.
