About Myton School

Myton School, a large mixed secondary in Warwick, was rated Good in its most recent graded Ofsted inspection in 2018, and a subsequent ungraded inspection in 2023 confirmed the school remains Good. The most telling academic metric is its Progress 8 score of 0.04, which places it in the 'Average' banding nationally. This score means that, on average, pupils achieve almost exactly what would be expected given their starting points, with a slight positive push. It ranks third out of six schools in the Warwick local authority area on this measure, and 16th out of 42 similar schools across the wider Warwickshire local authority. The school’s Attainment 8 score sits at 48.7, and 72.1% of pupils achieved a grade 4 or above in both English and maths, a solid baseline for a non-selective state school.

Digging deeper into the Progress 8 breakdown, Myton shows particular strength in English, with a progress score of 0.25, meaning pupils make a quarter of a grade more progress in this subject than the national average. Maths progress is flat at 0.04, while the EBacc element is slightly negative at -0.06. At Key Stage 5, the sixth form was rated Outstanding by Ofsted, though the academic outcomes tell a more mixed story. The value-added score is -0.19, which is classed as 'Below average', and the average points per entry is 31.47, equivalent to a grade C. Just 9.2% of students achieved AAB or higher in at least two facilitating subjects. The best three A-levels average out to a C+ grade, suggesting that while the sixth form is well-regarded, its academic outcomes are more modest than the school’s overall Good rating might suggest.

Myton is a heavily oversubscribed school, receiving 729 applications for 269 places in 2025/26, an oversubscription ratio of 2.71. Only 187 first-preference offers were made from 194 first-preference applications, so securing a place is competitive. The school offers a broad range of facilities including science labs, an astro turf, a sports hall, music rooms, art studios, and a dedicated sixth form centre. Its sports provision covers rugby, netball, football, swimming, and gymnastics, while clubs include the Duke of Edinburgh's Award, Model United Nations, Young Enterprise, and a coding club. For families with children who have additional needs, Myton lists provisions for a wide spectrum including autistic spectrum disorder, speech and language communication needs, and social, emotional and mental health difficulties. This is a large, popular community school that suits families looking for a solid state education with a strong sixth form, but where selective grammar schools in the area may achieve higher academic outcomes.
