Ofsted: Good · 2024 Inspected 2 years ago Mixed Secondary
3.9/10 Broadly average

15th of 21 secondary schools in Enfield we can score. 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 — 5.7/10 against 408 of them, against 3.3/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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. The school is rated Good by Ofsted, inspected in 2024. In 2024/25, 22.1% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 35.3, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.36 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 (5.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.3 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils take part in trips to a Russell Group University, cultural visits to museums or theatres, and overseas or residential trips.

Getting in. There are 600 pupils in a school with 1115 places, leaving 515 spare places. The school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils in reaching the national median for Attainment 8? What specific support is available for students aiming for university, given the trip to a Russell Group institution? How do smaller class sizes affect individual attention in core subjects?
