Holme Grange School has been ranked 5th nationally in The Times Parent Power league tables for independent secondary schools with no Sixth Form (11–16), placing the school among the highest-performing 11–16 independent schools in the country.
The ranking reflects the school’s strong academic performance, with 56.7% of GCSE results awarded at grades 9–7, alongside a curriculum and teaching approach that prioritises depth of understanding, intellectual curiosity and high expectations for all pupils.
Commenting on the achievement, Mrs Pippa Adams, Head of Holme Grange School, said:
“This recognition is a powerful endorsement of what makes Holme Grange special: outstanding teaching, a nurturing and ambitious culture, and a deep commitment to helping every child thrive through a diverse range of opportunities, both inside and outside the classroom. This is the most wonderful news for our community and a testament to the incredible work done by our staff and pupils every day.
We wish to congratulate last year’s GCSE cohort, our staff and all our families for their support of the school.”
This national recognition reinforces Holme Grange’s reputation as a high-performing independent school, offering an academically rigorous and supportive education for pupils aged 11–16.
