Our expectations of students at The Compton School and our ethos remain consistent. We strive for excellence in all that we do. Our strap line “Excellence for All” guides us all, students and staff. Over the past few years we have developed a series of clear and consistent practices about how we teach and the qualities that we wish to develop in our learners; the Compton DNA. They are at the heart of our success. We are very proud to be an Outstanding School and a National Teaching School.

Our outstanding results are testament to the quality of teaching and learning at The Compton School, as well as the positive relationships between staff and students and the excellent learning behaviour of all of our students.

Pleasingly, our recent OFSTED inspection in January 2018 confirmed graded the Compton as OUTSTANDING in every category, commenting that ' the behaviour of pupils is outstanding ' and ' pupils thrive in this environment and achieve well beyond expectations.

Who are we? 

We are a massively oversubscribed mixed multi-ethnic school that has had four outstanding OFSTED inspections in succession, most recently in January 2018. Students at the Compton make exceptional progress - our results routinely put the school within the top 10% of schools nationally for progress.

At The Compton, we understand that our brilliant staff make a difference to the life chances of our students every day by helping them to secure outstanding outcomes. We always strive to appoint the very best staff and once in post, we provide a work place environment that is considerate of staff workload, and ensures all needs are fully met now and in the future.
