Our Attainment 8 score is 55 compared to a national figure of 46; meaning that in every subject on average, our students achieve almost a grade higher than students do nationally. 57.6% of our students also achieved a Grade 5 or higher in both English and Maths, which is well above the National Average of 45.4% and a local authority average of 36.6%. As an Academy, we have the highest expectations of our students, which led to 413 top grade (Grade 9 or Distinction*) being achieved in GCSE subjects, placing these students’ performance in the top 5% of the country.
