The Martin High School Anstey
Leicester, LE7 7EB · Leicestershire · secondary school
28th of 43 secondary schools in Leicestershire we can score, 44 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 the 840 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 0.7/10 among them, against 3.4/10 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 | 43.9 · 50 | 30% | 1.50 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.62 · 11 | 25% | 0.27 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 44.6 · 44 | 10% | 0.44 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
