Results
Compared with the local authority and England
KS4 Results
Progress 8 was not published for 2024/25. This year group's key stage 2 tests were cancelled in 2020 because of COVID-19, so there is no starting point to measure progress from. No school in England has a Progress 8 score for this year, and the same applies to 2025/26.
Attainment and progress
Attainment 8 scores a pupil's best 8 GCSE results, out of about 90. Progress 8 compares those results with pupils who started secondary school at the same level: 0 is average.
