Ofsted: Outstanding · 2025 Inspected 1 year ago Girls Secondary
9.2/10 Well above average

5th of 16 secondary schools in Ealing we can score, 17 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 — 9.9/10 against 612 of them, against 9.1/10 nationally. Both figures are results only, without the inspection grade. A lower figure here means a stronger comparison group, not a weaker school.
