Wirral Grammar School for Boys
Wirral, CH63 3AQ · Wirral · Grammar school
4th of 19 secondary schools in Wirral we can score, 20 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 458 schools whose pupils have similar backgrounds — a tougher field — and it places 6.2/10 among them, against 8.8/10 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 | 91.0 · 96 | 30% | 2.89 |
| Progress 8 2023/24 | 0.36 · 76 | 25% | 1.91 |
| Attainment 8 2024/25 | 65.4 · 95 | 10% | 0.95 |
Each measure is read as a position among comparable schools, so a school in the middle of the country scores 5. Full method.
