18th of 21 secondary schools in Enfield 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 — 5.1/10 against 159 of them, against 2.9/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2025/26 | 35.5 · 26 | 46% | 1.18 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.17 · 37 | 38% | 1.43 |
| Attainment 8 2025/26 | 40.3 · 21 | 15% | 0.32 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
