Stradbroke High School
Eye, IP21 5JN · Suffolk · secondary school
8th of 43 secondary schools in Suffolk 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 — 6.8/10 against 924 of them, against 6.3/10 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 | 47.3 · 59 | 30% | 1.78 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.37 · 77 | 25% | 1.93 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 44.3 · 42 | 10% | 0.42 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Get to know the school
How it's doing. The school is rated Good by Ofsted, inspected in 2024-01. In 2024/25, 47.3% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 44.3, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.37 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 (6.8 out of 10 against similar schools, 6.3 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Duke of Edinburgh Award, choir, orchestra, brass ensemble, and 'Amplifier' composition group. Sports include football, cricket, and tennis. Arts activities feature music concerts, opera visits, student productions, and a Christmas Pantomime. Trips range from a European football tour and ski trip to visits to Cambridge, Auschwitz, and WWI battlefields.
Getting in. There are 339 pupils in a school with 435 places, leaving 96 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 does the school support pupils who do not attend a breakfast or after-school club? What specific support is available for students aiming for the Duke of Edinburgh Award? How do the recent inspection findings influence current teaching strategies?
