The Vyne Community School
Basingstoke, RG21 5PB · Hampshire · secondary school
41st of 67 secondary schools in Hampshire we can score, 69 in total — the rest without enough published data. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — 2.9/10 against 742 of them, against 2.5/10 nationally. So this is not simply a reflection of who attends. 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 | 37.5 · 33 | 30% | 1.00 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.63 · 10 | 25% | 0.26 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 43.0 · 35 | 10% | 0.35 |
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. The school is rated Good by Ofsted, inspected in 2026. In 2024/25, 37.5% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 43.0, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.63 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than those nationally who started from the same place. Its results are much the same when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so the gap is not explained by intake (2.9 out of 10 against similar schools, 2.5 out of 10 against all schools).
Beyond the classroom. The school offers a School Council.
Getting in. There are 740 pupils in a school with 750 places, leaving 10 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. With only 10 places remaining, how does the school manage waiting lists for new intakes? Since the Progress 8 score is below 0, what specific support is provided to help pupils improve their progress? How does the School Council involve students in decision-making processes?
