Kenilworth School and Sixth Form
Kenilworth, CV8 2AL · Warwickshire · secondary school
5th of 36 secondary schools in Warwickshire we can score, 38 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to the 542 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.4/10 among them, against 8.6/10 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
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 94 | 35% | 3.28 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 65.8 · 88 | 30% | 2.64 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.48 · 83 | 25% | 2.07 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 57.4 · 89 | 10% | 0.89 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
