About Royal Greenwich Trust School

Royal Greenwich Trust School has been rated Good across the board in its most recent Ofsted inspection, a significant improvement from its previous Requires Improvement rating in 2019. The school’s Progress 8 score of -0.36, however, tells a more nuanced story. This metric, which measures pupils’ academic progress from the end of primary school to the end of secondary school compared with the national average, places the school in the ‘Below average’ banding. It also ranks 14th out of 15 secondary schools in the Greenwich local authority, putting it in the bottom third nationally. The school’s Attainment 8 score sits at 39.7, and just over half of pupils (55.6%) achieved a grade 4 or above in both English and maths. These figures reflect a school that has stabilised its leadership and behaviour but is still working to lift academic outcomes for its largely disadvantaged cohort.
