About St Saviour's CofE Academy

St Saviour's CofE Academy sits slightly below the Staffordshire local authority average for primary schools when it comes to the proportion of pupils reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths. The school's figure of 54 per cent compares with a county average of 65 per cent, a gap of 11 percentage points that places it in the bottom half of schools nationally. That said, the picture is more mixed when you look at individual subjects. In reading, 71 per cent of pupils met the expected standard, which is a solid result, and the average reading scaled score of 104 is in line with national expectations. Maths tells a similar story, with 63 per cent reaching the expected level and an average score of 103. Where the school really struggles is at the higher standard: only 4 per cent of pupils achieved greater depth in writing, and 17 per cent in maths, both well below typical figures. So while the school is not failing, it is clearly not among the strongest performers in the local area.
