About All Saints Church of England Academy
All Saints Church of England Academy is one of 20 state secondary schools in Plymouth, and it sits within a local landscape where no school currently holds an Outstanding Ofsted rating. Among its closest peers in the city, Devonport High School for Girls and Scott Medical and Healthcare College rank highest on the local finder’s scoring system, followed by Lipson Co-operative Academy. All Saints, a mixed 11-16 Church of England school with 648 pupils, has held a Good rating across both its most recent inspections — the latest in 2023 and a previous one in 2015. The school is led by headteacher Scott Simpson-Horne, and its Ofsted breakdown from 2023 shows Good marks across the board: overall effectiveness, quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, and leadership and management all received the second-highest grade. The early years provision also scored Good. This consistency places All Saints as a solid, reliable option within a Plymouth secondary market where Outstanding is absent and Good is the ceiling.
