Leventhorpe School is a mixed, 11-19 secondary school and sixth form in the town of Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire. [1] The school became an academy in August 2011, and is part of the Rivers Multi-Academy Trust. [1] [2]

As of 2025, the school's last inspection was in 2024 when it was judged good. [3]

In 2017, the school's Progress 8 score at GCSE was -0.08, in line with the England average, and the Attainment 8 score was 53 points, above the England and Hertfordshire averages. [1] In 2018, GCSE results "exceed[ed] national targets". [4]
