Students valued at high performing school

WHEN Ofsted last visited the school, the inspectors concluded that Gillotts is outstanding overall, as well as in all the four key judgements — the quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development and leadership and management.

Gillotts is a high performing school where every student is valued as an individual, and is supported and encouraged to achieve their potential. The school prides itself on being inclusive of all, developing individuals who make a positive contribution to society now and in their future lives.

For inspectors to say that “all pupils are supported to make exceptional progress” and that “pupils rise to this challenge and achieve highly” is a great endorsement both of all the work that our staff do day in, day out, and also the way that our pupils commit themselves to being the best they can be.

The inspectors recognised our “inclusive and highly welcoming environment” and that pupils are “very happy at the school”.

Since 2019, the school’s GCSE results have put it consistently in the top 10 per cent of schools in the country for the progress its students make.

In 2025, 46 per cent of our students have achieved five or more passes at grade seven or better and 87 per cent of our students have achieved passes in both English and maths at grade four or better.

Gillotts is a popular school but vacancies do arise. Contact the school to find out more or to arrange a visit.
