Madani Boys School
Leicester, LE5 5LL · Leicester · secondary school
7th of 19 secondary schools in Leicester we can score, 21 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 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 9.0/10 against 918 of them, against 8.1/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 61.4 · 84 | 30% | 2.52 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.4 · 79 | 25% | 1.97 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 52.2 · 78 | 10% | 0.78 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 61.4% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 52.2, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.4 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did better than those nationally who started from the same place. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2025. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (9.0 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.1 out of 10 against all schools).
Getting in. The school has 448 pupils in a capacity of 450, leaving 2 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With only 2 places remaining, what is the current waiting list length? How does the school support pupils who need to catch up in English and maths? What does a typical day look like for a boy joining in Year 7?
