Northampton School for Boys
Northampton School for Boys is incredibly proud of its heritage and reputation for providing an exceptional education for students aged 11-18: single-sex provision for boys aged 11-16 with a co-educational Sixth Form. There are presently over 1600 students on roll, of which over 500 are in the Sixth Form (including 190 girls). The school is a strategic partner of the Northamptonshire Teaching School Hub and was graded as Outstanding in all aspects of its latest Ofsted inspection.
The school’s academic outcomes are remarkable year on year: GCSE results are consistently in the top five percent for boys’ progress and attainment across all schools in England and we are in the top five percent of schools nationally for A level attainment. In 2023, the school’s GCSE Progress Score was +0.57 against a national average of -0.17 for boys and over 40% of the school’s 650+ A level entries were graded A*/A and over 70% A*-B. NSB was the top performing state school in Northamptonshire for A level APS results for 2022/23. Looking to 2024, we are enormously proud to have delivered on exceptional outcomes for students once again at NSB. 80% of students were awarded a 5+ in English and Maths; on average, students secured over a grade 6 across the curriculum; over 75% of the whole cohort were awarded the EBacc, and our P8 score is +0.95. We also typically average between 4 and 8 students who progress to higher education at Oxbridge.
NSB has been ranked as the ‘Top State (Non-Grammar) School in the East Midlands’ for 2022, 2023 and 2024 by The Times based on GCSE and A level results and won ‘Secondary School of the Year’ at the recent NEA awards. Continuing with a trend of phenomenal achievements, we were also named ‘Comprehensive School of the Year in the East Midlands’ 2025 in the latest edition of Parent Power from The Times and Sunday Times. We also have an exceptional reputation for the breadth and depth of our extra-curricular programme and are currently ranked as the Top State School in Britain for competitive sport by National Publication, ‘School Sport Magazine’.
