Ofsted report card · 2026 Lowest area: Needs attention Mixed All-through
0.7/10 Well below average

21st of 22 secondary schools in Bristol, City of we can score, 24 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 — 1.8/10 against 192 of them, against 0.7/10 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 2026-01. In 2024/25, 23.3% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 34.6, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.75 in 2023/24, meaning pupils made less progress than those nationally starting from the same point. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (1.8 out of 10 against similar schools, 0.7 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the School Council, Duke of Edinburgh Award, and Young Carers groups. Activities include Sport's Day, Film, Dance, and Cookery Club, plus a Year 6 Camp. Both a breakfast club and an after-school club are available.

Getting in. There are 1241 pupils in a school with 1395 places, leaving 154 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to close the gap between their Attainment 8 and the national median? What specific support is offered for pupils with a negative Progress 8 score? How does the breakfast club integrate with the morning routine for younger students?
