Coventry, CV6 4GL · Coventry · secondary school
6th of 22 secondary schools in Coventry 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 — 6.7/10 against 646 of them, against 4.8/10 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 | 94 | 35% | 3.28 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 37.6 · 34 | 30% | 1.01 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.27 · 70 | 25% | 1.76 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 43.2 · 36 | 10% | 0.36 |
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, 37.6% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 43.2, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.27 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did better than those nationally who started from the same place. Ofsted rated the school Outstanding in January 2024. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (6.7 out of 10 against similar schools, 4.8 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Dance, Drama, Sing, and Godva Performing Arts Academies, play football, rugby, or tennis, and participate in bands and ensembles. An after-school club is available.
Getting in. The school has 1845 pupils in a building with 1570 places, meaning it is over capacity by 275. Consequently, places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being over capacity on a daily basis? What specific support is offered to pupils who are not in the top 37.6% for English and maths? How does the after-school club integrate with the academic curriculum?
