Woodrush High School
Wythall, B47 5JW · Worcestershire · secondary school
11th 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.
Narrow the comparison to the 709 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.4/10 among them, against 4.9/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 52 | 35% | 1.81 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 51.1 · 67 | 30% | 2.01 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | -0.41 · 20 | 25% | 0.50 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 49.2 · 67 | 10% | 0.67 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

How it's doing. In 2024/25, 51.1% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 49.2, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was -0.41 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did worse than those nationally who started from the same place. Ofsted rated the school Good in May 2024. Narrow the comparison to the schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 1.4 out of 10 among them, against 4.9 out of 10 nationally.
Beyond the classroom. Pupils join Lego Robotics, Book club, Science club, Animal club, Coding club, Geography club, and the Historical Society. They participate in sports teams, dance, and peripatetic instrument lessons. Trips include outdoor adventures to Blackwell Court, art visits to Kew Gardens, history trips to Berlin, visits to Worcester Cathedral, theatre visits, university masterclasses, geography fieldwork, and ski trips to Italy. An after-school club is available.
Getting in. The school has 1019 pupils in a capacity of 1080, leaving 61 spare places. The school has a little room, but is fairly full.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school support pupils to improve their Progress 8 scores? What specific support is available for students who find the curriculum challenging? How does the after-school club structure its activities?
