About Northampton International Academy

Northampton International Academy is a large all-through state school in West Northamptonshire, serving pupils from age 4 to 18. It sits 20th out of 22 secondary schools in the local authority when ranked by Progress 8, placing it in the bottom half of the area. For context, the top-performing local peers are Northampton School for Boys, Northampton Academy, and Wootton Park School, all of which achieve significantly stronger academic outcomes. The school is led by headteacher Martin Serrao and has a capacity of 2,220, with 1,806 pupils currently on roll. Just over a quarter of its students are eligible for free school meals, which is above the national average. In its most recent graded inspection in October 2024, Ofsted judged the school as Requires Improvement overall, though it was not given a final effectiveness grade. Notably, the inspection found that behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, sixth-form provision, and early years provision were all rated Good — a marked improvement from the previous inspection in January 2022, when the school was rated Inadequate across the board.
