School Description

University Academy Kidsgrove converted to become an academy on 1 June 2013. When its predecessor school, Maryhill High School, was last inspected by Ofsted, it was judged to require improvement, grade 3, overall. The academy is part of the University of Chester Academies Trust. The academy is a smaller than average secondary school with a small sixth form. Sixth form provision is offered as part of a consortium with three other secondary schools, known as the Trinity Sixth Form. Some students attend courses at other sites. One quarter of students are disadvantaged. These are students who are eligible for support from the pupil premium (additional funding provided by the government for students known to be eligible for free school meals and children looked after in public care), which is broadly average. The proportion of students who are disabled or have special educational needs is below average. The overwhelming majority of students are from a White British background. The proportion of students who speak English as an additional language is well below average. The achievement of students following alternative provision will not be evaluated in this report as there were too few students to consider without directly identifying them. The academy is receiving support from the St John Plessington Teaching School Alliance. In 2014, the academy met the current government floor standards which set the minimum expectations for students’ attainment and progress.
