Thamesview School
Gravesend, DA12 4LF · Kent · secondary school
77th of 99 secondary schools in Kent we can score, 103 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 — 1.2/10 against 360 of them, against 0.6/10 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 | 22.4 · 6 | 30% | 0.17 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.72 · 8 | 25% | 0.19 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 34.3 · 5 | 10% | 0.05 |
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. Ofsted rated the school Good in June 2024. In 2024/25, 22.4% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 34.3, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.72 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than peers nationally who started from the same place. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (1.2 out of 10 against similar schools, 0.6 out of 10 against all schools).
Getting in. There are 978 pupils in a school with 910 places, meaning it is over capacity by 68. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being over capacity by 68 places? What support is available for pupils whose Progress 8 score is below 0? How does the school help students bridge the gap between an Attainment 8 of 34.3 and the national median of 44.6?
