Plymstock School is a state comprehensive secondary school (ages 11–19)[1] in Plymstock, a suburb of Plymouth, Devon, England. It was the first West Devon comprehensive school (built on the core of a post war secondary school) and is now a Specialist Sports College. As of January 2011[update] it has 1,626 students, of whom 240 are in the sixth form. In April 2011, the school became an academy.
Plymstock School was maintained by Devon County Council until 1 April 1967, when it was transferred to Plymouth City Council which has maintained it until April 2011.[2] In 2003 it underwent what was reported as a budget crisis, forcing redundancies and reduced spending on new classrooms to replace temporary facilities.
Many of the latest school ratings, in local and national newspapers, have placed Plymstock in the top 5 of Plymouth schools,[citation needed] with the higher ranked schools being selective or fee-paying schools, and within the top 800 of England. (Herald, The Independent). As of the 2009, OFSTED report, this school has been rated as 'OUTSTANDING.
Plymstock's local feeder primary schools include: Elburton Primary; Hooe Primary; Dunstone Primary; Pomphlett Primary; and Oreston Primary.
^The school on occasion does allow sixth formers to stay on for an extra year if it would be beneficial to their grades.
