We have been placed number 44 nationally, 1 place up from last year. Parent Power tables, published by The Times, rank schools on their average performance using Standard Assessment Tests (SATs) and as a non-selective school, we are very proud of this achievement; a testament to the hard work our pupils put in, the excellent teaching they receive and the ongoing support of our parents and carers. ![](https://www.sacredheartwadhurst.org.uk/images/blog/9523_Times_top_50_schools_2022.PNG) - [ previous](https://www.sacredheartwadhurst.org.uk/blog/2020-04-27-04-45-rated-outstanding-in-all-areas) - [next ](https://www.sacredheartwadhurst.org.uk/blog/2025-05-21-00-00-00-celebrating-our-latest-excellent-isi-inspection-report) ### Category [![Independent Schools Association](https://files.schudio.com/sacred-heart-school/images/partners/ISA-Logo.High-Res.Vertical.jpg)](https://www.isaschools.org.uk/)[![Catholic Independent Schools' Conference](https://files.schudio.com/sacred-heart-school/images/partners/CISC_Logo_Colour.png)](https://www.catholicindependentschools.com/) ### Contact Us **Sacred Heart School** Mayfield Lane Durgates Wadhurst East Sussex TN5 6DQ Tel: +44 (0) 1892 783414 Registered Charity Number: 252878 ### Social Media [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sacredheartwadhurst) [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/@SacredHeartSchoolWadhurst) [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/sacredheartwadhurst/) © Copyright 2016–2026 Sacred Heart School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.sacredheartwadhurst.org.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
