Ofsted: Inadequate · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Boys Secondary
0.1/10 Well below average

18th of 18 secondary schools in Medway we can score, 20 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 — 0.0/10 against 867 of them, against 0.2/10 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.

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, 17.4% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. The Attainment 8 score was 29.8, compared to the national median of 44.6. Ofsted rated the school Inadequate in March 2023. 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 (0.0 out of 10 against similar schools, 0.2 out of 10 against all schools).

Getting in. The school has 861 pupils in a capacity of 969 places, leaving 108 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.

Worth asking on a visit. What specific actions has the leadership team taken since the 2023 Ofsted inspection to address the areas rated Inadequate? How does the school support pupils in raising their Attainment 8 scores towards the national median? What is the current timetable for the next inspection?
