Hitchin and Harpenden schools are providing a higher standard of education, learning and care than most of the rest of the country, according to an education watchdog.
Ofsted have judged 94 per cent of schools in the constituency good or outstanding, compared with the national figure of 83 per cent.
Conservative MP Peter Lilley said: "The Ofsted report shows what we already knew - that the schools in Hitchin and Harpenden are among the best in the country.
"These results are a great tribute to all our teachers.
"However, success creates its problems.
"Our excellent schools attract an increasing number of young families to the area, so we must create the additional school places we need to meet the growing demand and to ensure that no pupil from this constituency has to travel outside the area for a school place.
"It is vital that we build as speedily as possible an extra school in Harpenden and expand the capacity of our Hitchin schools to meet the demand."
