6.7/10 Above average

6th of 21 secondary schools in Enfield we can score. 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 — 9.2/10 against 555 of them, against 7.5/10 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. In 2024/25, 53.7% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 52.0, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.38 in 2023/24, indicating better progress than pupils nationally who started from the same place. Ofsted rated the school Good in November 2023. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.2 out of 10 against similar schools, 7.5 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Duke of Edinburgh Award, play netball, running, rock climbing, or rounders, and participate in dance, photography, or debating. Trips include expeditions, visits to Bletchley Park and the Houses of Parliament, a UCL Conference, and Year 8 at The Globe.

Getting in. The school has 999 pupils in a capacity of 1167 places, leaving 168 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils’ progress in English and maths to maintain results above the national median? What specific support is available for pupils aiming for the Duke of Edinburgh Award? How does the school manage the transition for Year 8 pupils attending The Globe?
