Queen Elizabeth's
Crediton, EX17 3LU · Devon · secondary school
23rd of 40 secondary schools in Devon we can score, 41 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 927 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.8/10 among them, against 6.3/10 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 | 13 | 35% | 0.45 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 49.7 · 64 | 30% | 1.92 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.22 · 66 | 25% | 1.66 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 46.2 · 53 | 10% | 0.53 |
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. The school is rated Good by Ofsted following an inspection in May 2026. In 2024/25, 49.7% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 46.2, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.22 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did better than those nationally who started from the same place. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 5.8 out of 10 among them, against 6.3 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the QE Jazz Band, Art Club, Chess Club, QE Theatre Academy, and the European Parliament Ambassador Scheme. Sports include Ten Tors, surfing, paddle boarding, mountain biking, basketball, football, rugby, and cricket. The QE Theatre Academy also produces annual theatre productions.
Getting in. There are 1138 pupils in a school with 1650 places, leaving 512 spare places. The school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils in reaching the national median for Attainment 8? What specific support is available for students who wish to participate in Ten Tors or other outdoor sports? How does the school maintain engagement for pupils in the larger year groups?
