All Saints Academy Dunstable
Dunstable, LU5 5AB · Central Bedfordshire · secondary school
15th of 15 secondary schools in Central Bedfordshire we can score, 27 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 0.8/10 against 674 of them, against 0.8/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 25.2 · 10 | 46% | 0.44 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.88 · 4 | 38% | 0.17 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 36.9 · 10 | 15% | 0.16 |
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, 25.2% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 36.9, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.88 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than peers nationally who started from the same place. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (0.8 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join clubs such as Allotment, Dance Club, and Board Games / Puzzlers, or play sports including Basketball, Ultimate Frisbee, and Football. The school also offers the Duke of Edinburgh's Award. An after-school club is available, but there is no breakfast club.
Getting in. The school has 564 pupils in a capacity of 740, leaving 176 spare places. This means 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 raising their Attainment 8 scores towards the national median? What specific support is offered to help students improve their Progress 8 scores? How does the after-school club operate for pupils who need care after the school day ends?
