Ormiston Six Villages Academy
Chichester, PO20 3UE · West Sussex · secondary school
28th of 38 secondary schools in West Sussex we can score, 40 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 940 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.6/10 among them, against 4.0/10 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 | 39.6 · 39 | 30% | 1.18 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.1 · 42 | 25% | 1.06 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 42.8 · 34 | 10% | 0.34 |
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, 39.6% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 42.8, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.1 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did slightly worse than those nationally who started from the same place. Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2023. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 2.6 out of 10 among them, against 4.0 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join coding, chess, public speaking, guitar, ukulele, Latin, and American comic book drawing clubs. Music and arts include dance, Voices Together, Djembe Drumming, and Samba/Steel pans groups. The school offers the Duke of Edinburgh’s Bronze Award programme and an after-school club.
Getting in. There are 698 pupils in a school with 816 places, leaving 118 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 8 scores? What specific activities are available in the after-school club? How does the curriculum support pupils who are not yet meeting the national median in Attainment 8?
