St Mary Redcliffe and Temple School

Bristol, BS1 6RT · Bristol, City of · secondary school

Mixed Secondary Church of England
7.8/10 Above average

2nd of 22 secondary schools in Bristol, City of we can score, 24 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 915 of them, against 7.8/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.

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, 61.6% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 54.2, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.24 in 2023/24, indicating 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, 7.8 out of 10 against all schools).

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Duke Of Edinburgh's Award and take music lessons.

Getting in. There are 1792 pupils in a school with 1799 places, leaving 7 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. With only 7 places remaining, how does the school manage the waiting list for new intakes? How does the Progress 8 score of +0.24 translate into support for individual subject choices? What specific support is available for pupils who need extra help in English and maths?
