Shenley Brook End School
Milton Keynes, MK5 7ZT · Milton Keynes · secondary school
9th of 14 secondary schools in Milton Keynes we can score. 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 2.6/10 among them, against 4.3/10 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 | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 44.4 · 51 | 30% | 1.54 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.25 · 31 | 25% | 0.77 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 45.4 · 48 | 10% | 0.48 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Chess, Sewing, Design, ICT, Puzzle, Homework, and Art Clubs. Sports include Football, Netball, Basketball, Rugby, Handball, Short Tennis, Badminton, and Tennis. Arts and music options cover Dance, Yoga, Life Drawing, and Arts Award. An after-school club is available.
Getting in. The school has 1883 pupils in a capacity of 1900, leaving 17 spare places. This means the school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to improve their Progress 8 scores? What specific steps are taken to secure a place for new students given the limited availability? How does the after-school club integrate with the curriculum?
