Cirencester Kingshill School
Cirencester, GL7 1HS · Gloucestershire · secondary school
22nd of 39 secondary schools in Gloucestershire we can score, 41 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 the 906 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.4/10 among them, against 5.6/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 45.6 · 55 | 46% | 2.53 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.08 · 56 | 38% | 2.15 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 48.2 · 63 | 15% | 0.97 |
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, 45.6% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. The Attainment 8 score was 48.2, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.08 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did better than those nationally who started from the same place. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 4.4 out of 10 among them, against 5.6 out of 10 nationally.
Getting in. The school has 806 pupils in a capacity of 980, leaving 174 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 to close the gap between their current progress scores and the national median? What specific opportunities exist for students to engage in extracurricular activities? How does the school utilise its current spare capacity to maintain high teaching standards?
