Infant school

Ages 3–7

Key Stage 2 performance

Co-op Academy Hamilton is an infant school for pupils aged 3–7. Pupils move on to a separate junior or middle school before Year 6, so the school does not enter pupils for the Key Stage 2 SATs and has no KS2 results to publish.

This applies to every infant school in England — it does not mean data is missing. Ofsted judgements and school information are shown below.

Red dashed line = one first choice per place. How to read this

The cut-off distance is how far the last child offered a place lived, not a catchment boundary: it moves every year with the number of applicants. Published by the council in its 2026 allocation figures, and checked against that document before we show it.

Co-op Academy Hamilton at a glance

Located in Stoke-on-Trent, Co-op Academy Hamilton is a primary school, classified by the DfE as a converter academy. The school educates roughly 113 pupils aged 3 to 7.

Competition for places is real here - 83% of first-choice applicants were offered a Reception place for September 2026 (36 first choices for 30 places). The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 0.33 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. Overall pupil absence was 4.3%. There are about 24.4 pupils per teacher. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 39% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Co-op Academy Hamilton does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links above.
