About The Green School for Boys

The Green School for Boys sits within Hounslow’s secondary landscape as a Church of England state school for boys aged 11 to 18, but it faces stiff competition from higher-ranked peers. In the local authority, it ranks 16th out of 19 schools of the same type, placing it in the bottom quarter by Progress 8 score. The top three performers in Hounslow are St Mark's Catholic School, Gunnersbury Catholic School, and Reach Academy Feltham, all of which post significantly stronger progress scores. The nearest school rated Outstanding by Ofsted is Nishkam School West London, just 1.4 kilometres away. The Green School itself holds a Good rating from its most recent graded inspection in 2020, and an ungraded visit in April 2025 confirmed that standards are being maintained. Its headteacher is Heidi Swidenbank, and the school operates with a capacity of 1,260 but currently has only 772 pupils on roll, suggesting room for growth.
