Rokeby School
London, E16 4DD · Newham · secondary school
10th 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 — 8.8/10 against 254 of them, against 6.6/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 54.3 · 73 | 46% | 3.36 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.05 · 54 | 38% | 2.07 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 50.8 · 74 | 15% | 1.14 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 54.3% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 50.8, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.05 in 2023/24, meaning pupils did better than those nationally who started from the same place. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (8.8 out of 10 against similar schools, 6.6 out of 10 against all schools).
Getting in. There are 588 pupils in a school with 900 places, leaving 312 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 do smaller class sizes affect individual teacher attention? What support is available for pupils who need extra help in English and maths? How does the school manage transitions for boys entering secondary education?
