Oasis Academy Silvertown
London, E16 2BB · Newham · secondary school
18th of 20 secondary schools in Newham 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 — 4.7/10 against 400 of them, against 2.6/10 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 | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 38.4 · 36 | 30% | 1.08 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.78 · 6 | 25% | 0.15 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 45.1 · 46 | 10% | 0.47 |
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, 38.4% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 45.1, slightly above the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.78 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 (4.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 2.6 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Good in November 2022.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils participate in fitness, mindfulness, singing, creating and making, visiting science museums, engineering workshops, and volunteering in local community projects.
Getting in. The school has 511 pupils in a capacity of 600, leaving 89 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to improve their progress scores, which are currently below the national baseline? What specific support is available for students who need help catching up in English and maths? How does the school engage parents in monitoring their child’s development during the transition to secondary education?
