Dedworth Middle School
About Dedworth Middle School
Dedworth Middle School’s most recent Ofsted inspection, in 2022, awarded it a Good rating across all five categories, including behaviour and attitudes and leadership and management. This marks a clear improvement from its previous inspection in 2018, when the school was rated Requires Improvement overall. While the school’s own Progress 8 score is not available in the data, the local authority average for secondary schools in Windsor and Maidenhead is 0. 18, which is above the national average of zero. Without Dedworth’s own figure, it is impossible to say whether it outperforms or lags behind this LA benchmark, but the Ofsted trajectory is encouraging. The school serves a notably diverse intake: 29. 5 per cent of its 533 pupils are eligible for free school meals, well above the national average, and the school is undersubscribed, operating at 74 per cent of its 720 capacity. This suggests a school that is inclusive and may have capacity to welcome more families.
