About Lampton Academy
Lampton Academy’s Progress 8 score of 0.49 sits above the Hounslow local authority average of 0.44, meaning pupils here make stronger academic progress than the typical secondary student in the borough. That places the school 8th out of 19 state secondaries in Hounslow, and within the top 25 per cent of schools nationally for this key measure. The school is also one of only seven secondaries in the borough rated Outstanding by Ofsted, a grade it received in its most recent inspection in May 2024. That inspection awarded top marks across the board — Outstanding for quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, leadership and management, and sixth-form provision — with personal development rated Good. With 1,510 pupils on roll and a capacity of 1,502, the school is effectively full, and oversubscription is significant: for 230 Year 7 places in 2025/26, there were 1,115 applications, giving an oversubscription ratio of 4.85 to one.
