All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy is a converter academy in Mansfield for boys and girls aged 11 to 18. It has 1,130 pupils, 23 more than it has places for. About 20 in every 100 pupils come from a low-income family, a bit fewer than at most schools. We give it 74 out of 100. That puts it above schools like it, ahead of 57% of the 50 schools most like it. Ofsted's last grade was good, back in 2022.

What Ofsted found

A shorter visit on 24 February 2022 found nothing to change the school's grade. Read the report on Ofsted's website.

Good overall. A shorter follow-up visit found nothing to change that. The last full inspection was before September 2019, which is as far back as Ofsted's public records go, so we can't show its date or the grades for each area.

This inspection is more than 4 years old. When Ofsted next visits, the school will get a report card instead of one grade.

Does every child do well here?

A good school does well by every child, not just on average. Each row compares two groups of pupils here. The grey marks show the same two groups across England. None of the gaps is smaller than the gap across England. When a group has fewer than about ten pupils, its figures jump around a lot from year to year.

Getting a place

Open to all. There is no entrance test. As a Roman Catholic school it may put families of that faith first. Check the school's own admissions rules.

A few spare places1,130 pupils for 1,231 places, 2024/25
92% full

About 101 places were empty, so most families who apply get in, though a popular year group can still fill up. Pupil numbers have stayed about the same since 2021/22.

Will my child get a place?

The last child to get a place lived 4.3 miles away in 2026, 160 m away in 2025, 520 m away in 2024. Children in care, brothers and sisters of current pupils, faith and other priority groups are placed first. After that, the closer you live, the better your chances. Type in your postcode to see how far away you are.

We measure in a straight line from the middle of your postcode to the school. The council measures its own way, and the cut-off changes every year. Use this as a rough guide, and read the council's admissions booklet before you apply.

How places were given out for September 2026. More children applied than there were places. The last place went to a child living 4.3 miles from the school. Living closer than that didn't guarantee a place, but living much further away meant missing out that year.

The distances are the council's own, usually measured in a straight line from home to the school gate. If the distance is getting shorter each year, the school is getting harder to get into. See which councils we have this data for.

Who a school teaches matters. That is why our score compares it with schools that take in a similar mix of children, not with every school in the country.

Reserves are the money left over at the end of the year, kept back for emergencies and big projects. Being in the red year after year is a warning sign. Very large reserves can mean money sitting in the bank instead of being spent on today's pupils. Academy figures are rounded to the nearest £1,000 and include a share of any money the trust holds centrally.

Crime figures come from police.uk. The police record each crime at the nearest of a fixed set of map points rather than the exact spot, so “within 500 m” is only rough. House prices are from HM Land Registry sales nearby over the last two years.

Compared with schools like it

Our score compares All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy with the 49 schools in England whose pupils are most like its own. We match on family income, how many children are learning English, special needs, the neighbourhood, the size of the school and how it admits pupils. Those 49 schools are dotted all over the country, so we don't list them. What matters is where this school sits among them.

How the score was worked out

The score is out of 100. A 74 means that once everything below is added up, this school comes out ahead of 74% of secondary schools in England. Results bounce around from year to year, especially in small schools, so we also show a likely range: 67 to 80. Every part is judged against schools with a similar mix of pupils. For small schools we pull each part towards the group average, so one unusual year can't swing the score too far.

Questions parents ask

Is All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy a good school?

Yes, going by the figures. All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy scores 74 out of 100. That is above schools that take in a similar mix of pupils, and ahead of 57% of the 50 schools most like it in England. The score could fairly be anywhere from 67 to 80, so a few points either way between schools doesn't mean much.

What is All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy's Ofsted rating?

Ofsted rated All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy good at its last full inspection on 24 February 2022. That was more than four years ago. When Ofsted next visits, the school will get a report card instead of a single grade.

Its Attainment 8 score, which is the average grade across a pupil's best eight subjects times ten, was 51.6, against 46.8 for England. In each subject, pupils here finished about half a grade ahead of children across England who started secondary school at the same level.

How many pupils does All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy have?

1,130 pupils aged 11 to 18 were on the roll in January 2026. It has 1,107 places, so it is 102% full.

Is All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy oversubscribed, and how far away can you live?

Yes. For September 2026 the last place went to a child living 4.3 miles away. Children in care, brothers and sisters of current pupils and other priority groups come before distance, so the cut-off moves every year.

What is attendance like at All Saints' Catholic Voluntary Academy?
