Uxbridge High School
Uxbridge, UB8 2PR · Hillingdon · secondary school
15th of 22 secondary schools in Hillingdon we can score. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds and it does better still — 7.0/10 against 579 of them, against 4.6/10 nationally. 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 | 39.4 · 39 | 46% | 1.79 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.12 · 58 | 38% | 2.25 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 43.0 · 35 | 15% | 0.54 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
