Best Secondary schools in Clacton-on-Sea
We've ranked 1 secondary schools in Clacton-on-Sea using up to three years of published DfE performance data. Clacton County High School leads the list based on the latest available results.
Rankings use up to three years of published Department for Education performance data (2025 is the most recent year used). For secondary schools, SchoolCentra uses Progress 8 where available, followed by Attainment 8 and then the percentage of pupils achieving grade 5 or above in English and maths. Results are converted into comparable national percentiles and weighted towards the most recent year.
Rankings also account for the number of pupils included in each school's results. Results based on smaller cohorts can vary considerably from year to year, so they are moved closer to the national average to reflect the lower level of statistical confidence. Schools with very small cohorts are shown without a precise ranking position.
All-through schools are included on both primary and secondary pages where relevant data is available. Schools without published performance data are listed alphabetically and are not included in the Top 10.
Performance data is only one part of choosing a school. Parents should also review individual school profiles, admissions information, inspection reports and visit schools where possible.
Based on three years of published performance results, adjusted to account for the number of pupils included in each year's results.
