Abbey Grange Church of England Academy
Leeds, LS16 5EA · Leeds · secondary school
4th of 42 secondary schools in Leeds we can score, 45 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 9.3/10 against 930 of them, against 8.8/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 86 | 35% | 2.99 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 62.3 · 85 | 30% | 2.55 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.7 · 91 | 25% | 2.27 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 55.9 · 87 | 10% | 0.87 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. In 2024/25, 62.3% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 55.9, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.7 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did better than those nationally who started from the same place. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.8 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2026.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils access peripatetic music lessons and take part in pilgrimages, field trips to the Yorkshire Dales, skiing in Europe, battlefield visits in France, and a geography trip to Iceland.
Getting in. The school has 1615 pupils in a capacity of 1152, meaning it is over capacity by 463. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the high demand for places given it is significantly over capacity? What specific support is available for pupils who need extra help in English and maths? How are the various trips and music lessons scheduled to avoid conflicting with core lessons?
