Danebury School
Stockbridge, SO20 6HA · Hampshire · secondary school
64th of 67 secondary schools in Hampshire we can score, 69 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 — 0.1/10 against 918 of them, against 0.6/10 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 | 23.4 · 7 | 45% | 0.31 |
| Ofsted | 1 | 40% | 0.03 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 34.3 · 5 | 15% | 0.07 |
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, 23.4% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths, while the national figure was not provided in the data. Attainment 8 stood at 34.3, against a national median of 44.6. 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 (0.1 out of 10 against similar schools, 0.6 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Inadequate in October 2022.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the MFL Language Club, Creative Writing, Art, DT, Dungeons and Dragons, Judo, Ecologists, and Duolingo clubs. Sports include Indoor Football, Basketball, Netball, Rugby, and Badminton. Arts activities feature Oliver Production Rehearsals and a KS3 Drama Club. An after-school club is available.
Getting in. The school has 326 pupils in a capacity of 780, leaving 454 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 is the school addressing the Inadequate rating from 2022? What specific steps are being taken to raise Attainment 8 scores? How do the current class sizes impact the quality of individual support?
