Warrington, WA2 7NG · Warrington · secondary school
13th of 13 secondary schools in Warrington 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 — 0.0/10 against 408 of them, against 0.0/10 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 | 14.1 · 1 | 46% | 0.04 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -1.82 · 0 | 38% | 0.00 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 23.0 · 0 | 15% | 0.00 |
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, 14.1% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 23.0, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -1.82 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than peers 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 (0.0 out of 10 either way).
Getting in. The school has 296 pupils in a capacity of 620, leaving 324 spare places. This means the school has real spare room, so a place is likely and classes are smaller than it is built for.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to close the attainment gap with the national median? What specific academic or vocational pathways are available given the current class sizes? How does the school monitor progress for students who start below the national average?
