The RAF had over 50 radar stations across Britain which could find out about future attacks before the German aircraft managed to reach the coasts of Britain. This enabled them to prepare counter-attacks and their defense and ultimately rendered the German airforce completely useless. This is why Germans never managed to conquer the island.
