About Fortismere School

Fortismere School’s Progress 8 score of 0.49 places it comfortably above the Haringey local authority average of 0.33, a gap that signals stronger-than-typical academic progress for its pupils. This puts the school third out of 14 secondary schools in the borough, landing it in the top 25% locally. The score is also well above the national average (which sits at zero), meaning students here typically achieve nearly half a grade more per subject than peers with similar starting points. The school’s attainment 8 score of 57.8 — equivalent to just under a grade B across eight subjects — reinforces this picture of solid academic performance. With 84.7% of pupils achieving a grade 4 or above in English and maths (the basics measure), Fortismere is clearly a school where core academic standards are taken seriously. That said, it sits behind two local schools — Alexandra Park School and Harris Academy Tottenham — which both post higher Progress 8 scores, so it’s not the top performer in Haringey, but it is a strong, reliable choice.
