About Goresbrook School

Goresbrook School’s most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024 awarded it Outstanding across every category judged — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, sixth-form provision and early years provision — a clean sweep that marks a clear step up from its previous Good rating in 2019. But the headline academic metric that really sets it apart is its Progress 8 score of 0.87, which is classified as “well above average” nationally. To put that in context, the average Progress 8 score for secondary schools in Barking and Dagenham is 0.23, so Goresbrook’s pupils are making significantly more progress than their peers across the borough. This score also places the school first out of 13 secondary schools in the local authority, and in the top five per cent of schools nationally. In London, it ranks 59th out of 487 schools, putting it in the top 12 per cent regionally.
