Wilson's School
Wallington, SM6 9JW · Sutton · Grammar school
1st of 15 secondary schools in Sutton 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 — 10.0/10 against 253 of them, against 10.0/10 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ofsted | 94 | 35% | 3.28 |
| Grade 5+ English & maths 2024/25 | 100.0 · 100 | 30% | 2.99 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 1.27 · 99 | 25% | 2.48 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 86.9 · 100 | 10% | 1.00 |
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. The school was rated Outstanding by Ofsted in 2022. In 2024/25, 100.0% of pupils achieved Grade 5 or above in English and maths. Attainment 8 was 86.9, compared to the national median of 44.6. Progress 8 was +1.27 in 2023/24, indicating pupils did better than those starting from the same place nationally. Its results hold up when the comparison narrows to schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds, so they are not simply a reflection of who attends (10.0 out of 10 either way).
Beyond the classroom. Pupils can join Chess, Debating, Wilsonomics, The Politeia, and The Wilson's Intrigue clubs. Sports include Football, Cricket, Rugby, Basketball, Badminton, Athletics, Table tennis, and Cross-country. Arts and music offerings comprise the Junior Production, Senior Orchestra, String Orchestra, Chamber Wind Ensembles, and School Choir.
Getting in. There are 1312 pupils in a school with 1327 places, leaving 15 spare places. The school is close to full, so places are likely to be competitive.
Worth asking on a visit. How does the school manage the competitive entry process for the remaining 15 places? What support is available for pupils who need to catch up in subjects where they initially struggled? How does the school maintain its Outstanding standards with such a high proportion of high-achieving students?
