Mixed Secondary
3.1/10 Below average

11th of 11 secondary schools in Richmond upon Thames 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 — 4.1/10 against 718 of them, against 3.1/10 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, 37.3% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 43.5, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.32 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than those nationally who started from the same place. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (4.1 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.1 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Duke of Edinburgh Award, take instrumental lessons, and attend theatre trips. They also go on a ski trip to Austria, a Spanish trip to Barcelona, a Humanities trip to Rome, and UK-based Geography data collection days for GCSE.

Getting in. There are 866 pupils in a school with 900 places, leaving 34 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are falling behind in English and maths? What specific support is available for students aiming for the Duke of Edinburgh Award? How does the school manage the transition for new students given the competitive nature of places?
