Michaela Community School
London, HA9 0UU · Brent · secondary school
1st of 15 secondary schools in Brent we can score, 16 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 — 10.0/10 against 588 of them, against 9.9/10 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.
How this is worked out
| Measure | Percentile | Weight | Adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 94 | 35% | 3.28 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 97.4 · 98 | 30% | 2.94 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 2.56 · 100 | 25% | 2.50 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 77.6 · 99 | 10% | 0.99 |
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, 97.4% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 77.6, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +2.56 in 2023/24, indicating better progress than pupils nationally who started from the same place. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (10.0 out of 10 against similar schools, 9.9 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in July 2023.
Getting in. The school has 744 pupils in a capacity of 840 places, leaving 96 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who need extra help to reach the high attainment standards? What does a typical day look like for a student interested in creative subjects? How does the school manage the transition for new joiners given the current pupil numbers?
