The Nottingham Emmanuel School
West Bridgford, NG2 7YF · Nottingham · secondary school
10th of 18 secondary schools in Nottingham we can score, 19 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 — 5.4/10 against 367 of them, against 3.3/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 38.2 · 36 | 46% | 1.64 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.32 · 26 | 38% | 0.99 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 44.2 · 41 | 15% | 0.63 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 38.2% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. The Attainment 8 score was 44.2, slightly below the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.32 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than those nationally who started from the same place. Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still (5.4 out of 10 against similar schools, 3.3 out of 10 against all schools).
Getting in. The school has 1132 pupils in a capacity of 1150, leaving 18 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils who are falling behind in English and maths? What specific steps are taken to improve progress scores for students with similar backgrounds? How does the school manage the competitive nature of admissions for the remaining 18 places?
