Check the area around this school
30th of 31 secondary schools in Worcestershire we can score, 45 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 — 0.5/10 against 578 of them, against 0.5/10 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 | 14 | 35% | 0.50 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2025/26 | 24.7 · 8 | 30% | 0.22 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.91 · 4 | 25% | 0.10 |
| Attainment 8 2025/26 | 33.1 · 3 | 10% | 0.03 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
Tudor Grange Academy Redditch overview
How it's doing
In 2024/25, 23.1% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 29.8, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.91 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 (0.5 out of 10 either way). Ofsted inspected the school in February 2026 under the new framework, which grades areas separately without an overall grade.
