Kesteven and Grantham Girls' School
Grantham, NG31 9AU · Lincolnshire · Grammar school
1st of 54 secondary schools in Lincolnshire we can score. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to the 362 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 8.7/10 among them, against 9.7/10 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 | 94 | 35% | 3.28 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 86.5 · 96 | 30% | 2.87 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 1.04 · 98 | 25% | 2.45 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 68.8 · 96 | 10% | 0.96 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
