About Langley Park School for Girls

Langley Park School for Girls is a strong performer in Bromley, and the data backs that up clearly. Its Progress 8 score of 0.4 is well above the local authority average of 0.13 for state secondary schools, meaning pupils here make significantly more academic progress than their peers across the borough. That score places the school 5th out of 19 similar schools in Bromley, comfortably in the top quarter nationally. It’s a selective girls’ school in all but name — oversubscribed by a factor of nearly four to one, with 913 applications for 236 places in the 2025/26 admissions round.
