Around 824 pupils aged 11 to 16 attend the school. In the most recent GCSE results, pupils achieved an average Attainment 8 score of 51.1, above the national average of 46. That is down 1.8 points in its Attainment 8 score on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the top 25% of secondary schools nationally.
46% of pupils achieved a grade 5 or above in both English and maths, in line with the national average of about 45%. 73% achieved a standard pass (grade 4+) in English and maths. St James' Catholic High School does not currently have a recent graded Ofsted judgement on record (often the case for newer or recently converted schools), so it is worth asking when its next inspection is expected. This overview is generated automatically from the latest published DfE performance tables and Ofsted data; figures are rounded, and you can check the originals via the official links further down the page.
