The St Marylebone CofE School
London, W1U 5BA · Westminster · secondary school
3rd of 11 secondary schools in Westminster 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 — 9.7/10 against 900 of them, against 9.0/10 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 | 67.1 · 89 | 46% | 4.11 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.69 · 90 | 38% | 3.48 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 61.0 · 93 | 15% | 1.43 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Beyond the classroom. Music lessons are available.
