Performance Data
Key figures from the Government’s most recent ‘Compare School Performance’ website (including Progress 8 and Attainment 8 metrics) are available using the link below, relating to the 2024-2025 academic year.
Historically, our Progress 8 figure is significantly positive. Our 2023-2024 Progress 8 score of +0.68 (+0.6 in 2022-2023) means that, on average and despite our intake at Year 7 being selective, our students achieve GCSE grades which are 68% of a grade ahead of those they might be expected to achieve. Our impressive, statistically significant figure is further evidence that our students’ fabulous success at GCSE really is, at least in part, due to factors within the control of this particular School, such as teaching quality, academic support and pastoral care. Note that due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we will not receive a new Progress 8 figure until Summer '26.
The Department for Education School Performance tables for our school can be found here.
