On exam results over the last three years, All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy is the top-ranked primary school in Glossop, in the top 43% of schools in England.
How are the schools ranked?
By published Department for Education exam results averaged over three years: for secondary schools, Attainment 8 plus a quarter of the share getting grade 5+ in English and maths; for primary schools, the share reaching the expected standard in reading, writing and maths plus half the share reaching the higher standard.
