About Dagenham Park CofE School

Dagenham Park CofE School is a secondary school in Dagenham, Barking and Dagenham, classified by the DfE as a voluntary controlled school with a Church of England religious character. Around 1,458 pupils aged 11 to 19 attend the school. In the most recent GCSE results, pupils achieved an average Attainment 8 score of 42.1, below the national average of 46. Results have held broadly steady on the previous year. On our composite score, which combines the DfE attainment measures above, this places it in the lower half of secondary schools nationally.

34% of pupils achieved a grade 5 or above in both English and maths, below the national average of about 45%. 60% achieved a standard pass (grade 4+) in English and maths. The school serves a community with above-average levels of disadvantage: about 42% of pupils have been eligible for free school meals in the last six years, compared with roughly 24% nationally — useful context when reading the results above. Dagenham Park CofE 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.
