St Thomas More Catholic School
Bedford, MK41 7UL · Bedford · secondary school
5th of 13 secondary schools in Bedford we can score, 14 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 6.2/10 against 940 of them, against 6.2/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 | 45.6 · 55 | 30% | 1.64 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.31 · 73 | 25% | 1.83 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 47.0 · 57 | 10% | 0.57 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
