Toot Hill School

Nottingham, NG13 8BL · Nottinghamshire · secondary school

Ofsted: Good · 2023 Inspected 3 years ago Mixed Secondary
7.3/10 Above average

5th of 45 secondary schools in Nottinghamshire we can score. 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 — 8.3/10 against 826 of them, against 8.5/10 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.

Ofsted 52 35% 1.81
Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 67.5 · 89 30% 2.68

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. In 2024/25, 67.5% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 55.9, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.4 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did better than those nationally who started from the same place. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (8.3 out of 10 against similar schools, 8.5 out of 10 against all schools). Ofsted rated the school Good in January 2023.

Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join the Duke of Edinburgh Award, play football, rugby, cricket, table tennis, netball, or athletics, and participate in bands, artistic workshops, and dramatic shows. Trips include European tours, scientific research expeditions, historical tours, and cultural experiences.

Getting in. There are 1907 pupils in a school with 1850 places, meaning it is over capacity by 57. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.

Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the 57 pupils over capacity in daily timetabling? What specific support is available for pupils who need to catch up on Progress 8? How are the European trips funded for families?
