Henry Beaufort School

About Henry Beaufort School

Henry Beaufort School is a secondary school in Winchester, Hampshire, classified by the DfE as a community school. Around 1,005 pupils aged 11 to 16 attend the school. In the most recent GCSE results, pupils achieved an average Attainment 8 score of 50.5, above the national average of 46. That is down 2.8 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 27% of secondary schools nationally.

55% of pupils achieved a grade 5 or above in both English and maths, above the national average of about 45%. 73% achieved a standard pass (grade 4+) in English and maths. Henry Beaufort School was not oversubscribed for September 2026: all 191 families who put it first were offered a place. The council's own allocation figures show the last child offered a place for 2026 lived 18.89 miles away in a straight line — that distance is not a fixed catchment and moves each year. After Year 11, 91% of its leavers went on to education, an apprenticeship or work that they stayed in for at least two terms. Overall pupil absence was 7.0%. There are about 17.9 pupils per teacher. Henry Beaufort 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 above.
