About schools in Slough
The 60 schools listed in Slough span more than one stage of education. Its 14 secondary schools are where families compare options once a child finishes primary. One all-through school teaches every age from the early years to school-leaving age on a single site.
Every school on this page is inspected by Ofsted. Its newer reports judge a school across several areas rather than giving one overall grade, while older reports still carry the previous single grade, so read the framework and the date on each page before you set two schools side by side. Where results have been published you will also find key stage 2 scores for the primary schools and Attainment 8 for the secondary schools. An inspection or a results table captures a school at one past moment, so use this page to draw up a shortlist and then visit.

Common questions about schools in Slough
- How many schools are in Slough?
- OfferDay lists 60 schools in Slough, including 28 primary schools and 14 secondary schools.
- Who inspects schools in Slough?
- Every school in Slough is inspected by Ofsted. Newer reports grade several areas of a school separately on a report card, while older reports carry a single overall grade, so check the framework and the date on each page before you compare two schools.
- Which are the best schools in Slough?
- OfferDay ranks an area's schools only where enough of them have published results to compare fairly, and Slough does not have enough to rank. Compare its schools on their Ofsted reports and, where results are published, the figures shown against each school on this page.
- How many towns are in the Slough local authority?
- OfferDay groups the Slough schools across three towns, listed in the schools-by-town section on this page. Any school with no town recorded in the national register is listed separately, grouped by phase, so every school in the local authority is reachable.
