Uffculme School
Cullompton, EX15 3AG · Devon · secondary school
3rd of 40 secondary schools in Devon we can score, 41 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 — 8.0/10 against 881 of them, against 8.0/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 57.5 · 78 | 46% | 3.62 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.46 · 82 | 38% | 3.16 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 52.8 · 80 | 15% | 1.23 |
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, 57.5% of pupils achieved grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 52.8, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +0.46 in 2023/24, indicating better progress than pupils 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 (8.0 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join instrumental lessons, play rugby, football, or netball, and participate in Activities Week, Adventurous Activities, Moorland Walking, Ten Tors, and the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award.
Getting in. The school has 1085 pupils in a capacity of 940, meaning it is over capacity by 145. The school is over its stated capacity, so places are competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the pressure of being 145 pupils over capacity? What support is available for students aiming for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award? How are instrumental lessons scheduled alongside the academic timetable?
