About Chelsea Academy

Chelsea Academy’s Progress 8 score of 0.23 is a solid result, but it sits below the Kensington and Chelsea local authority average of 0.4 for secondary schools. That gap means pupils here make less progress relative to their peers across the borough, though the score is still positive — students are leaving with better GCSE results than they arrived expecting. The school ranks 4th out of 6 state secondaries in the LA, putting it in the middle of the pack, and 998th nationally out of over 3,100 schools. Where it really shines is in maths: the Progress 8 maths score is 0.42, well above the overall figure and a clear strength. English progress, at 0.08, is more modest, and the open element (subjects outside the EBacc) sits at 0.1. The EBacc entry rate is 25.6%, which is relatively low, and only 15.3% of pupils achieved the EBacc at a grade 4 or above. Still, the basics measure — 73.9% achieving a grade 4 in both English and maths — is a strong headline for a school with nearly half its pupils eligible for free school meals.
