In February 2013, Ofsted rated this as a 'Good School'. In March 2017 Putteridge High School converted to academy status and is now sponsored by the Chiltern Learning Trust.

Virtually all maintained schools and academies follow the National Curriculum, and are inspected by Ofsted on how well they succeed in delivering a 'broad and balanced curriculum'. The school has to decide whether Key Stage 3 contains years 7, 8 and 9- or whether year 9 should be in Key Stage 4 and the students just study subjects that will be examined by the GCSEs exams at 16. Putteridge had decided to take the latter approach. Putteridge High School offers Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 only. There is no sixth form or Key Stage 5. The school also offers The Duke of Edinburgh's Award programme. All students continued in education after leaving the school.
