Framingham Earl High School
Norwich, NR14 7QP · Norfolk · secondary school
11th of 53 secondary schools in Norfolk we can score. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to the 842 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.3/10 among them, against 7.2/10 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
