Progress 8
WELL ABOVE AVERAGE
Progress 8 is a measure of the development a school cohort/pupils makes from year 6 to year 11. The data used is from 2024. There will be no KS2 updates for 2025 or 2026 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The government is consulting on an improved version of Progress 8 and Attainment 8
What the school inspection says
“Pupils at this school have a keen desire to do well. They rise to the high expectations set by staff ... The school’s character education programme helps pupils to fulfil their potential and ‘be your best self’ … Leaders have designed a curriculum that is highly ambitious ... In the sixth form, leaders work closely with students to ensure that they are well prepared for university or apprenticeships. Many students move successfully to Russell Group universities.”
