Langley Grammar School
Langley, SL3 7QS · Slough · Grammar school
5th of 15 secondary schools in Slough we can score. Local and same-phase on purpose: a national table mostly measures who attends.
Narrow the comparison to the 253 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 7.7/10 among them, against 9.6/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 86 | 35% | 2.99 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 98.3 · 99 | 30% | 2.96 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.75 · 93 | 25% | 2.32 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 77.6 · 99 | 10% | 0.99 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.

Getting in. There are 1274 pupils in a school with 1270 places, meaning it is over capacity by 4. 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 over capacity for new applicants? What support is available for pupils aiming to improve their progress scores relative to the national average? How does the curriculum balance academic rigour with extracurricular opportunities like the orchestra?
