Beverley High School
Beverley, HU17 9EX · East Riding of Yorkshire · secondary school
1st of 18 secondary schools in East Riding of Yorkshire we can score. 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 — 6.8/10 against 920 of them, against 6.4/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 94 | 33% | 3.12 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 50.3 · 66 | 31% | 2.02 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.14 · 60 | 26% | 1.54 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 50.1 · 71 | 10% | 0.73 |
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, 50.3% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 50.1, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.14 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did better than those nationally who started from the same place. Its position is much the same whether compared with all schools or only those whose pupils have similar backgrounds (6.8 out of 10 against similar schools, 6.4 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in 2022.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the BHS Bike Group and Greenpower Cars, access ERSMS and instrumental lessons, and visit the Hay Festival, Burghley House, Yorkshire Sculpture Park, Dalby Forest, Oxford University, Hull Truck Theatre, Royal Opera House, and Royal Court of Justice.
Getting in. There are 821 pupils in a school with 950 places, leaving 129 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who need extra help to reach the national median in Attainment 8? What specific support is available for students aiming for university, given the Oxford trip? How does the school manage the transition for new students joining a fairly full cohort?
