Wolverhampton, WV3 9DU · Wolverhampton · secondary school
12th of 20 secondary schools in Wolverhampton 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 — 5.4/10 against 646 of them, against 3.7/10 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 | 37.1 · 32 | 46% | 1.49 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.15 · 38 | 38% | 1.48 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 44.8 · 45 | 15% | 0.69 |
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, 37.1% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 44.8, slightly above the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 in 2023/24 was -0.15, indicating pupils performed slightly worse than peers nationally who started from the same point. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (5.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.7 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Basketball Academy and Academy Band. Trips include a Battlefields Trip, Bronze and Silver DofE Expeditions, and a Ski Trip. Both breakfast and after-school clubs are available.
Getting in. The school has 1306 pupils in a capacity of 1326, leaving 20 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are falling behind in English and maths? What specific support is available for students aiming for DofE qualifications? How does the school manage the competitive nature of admissions for new intakes?
