The headline result is a strong one: 74% of pupils secure grade 5 or above in English and Maths, comfortably ahead of the national average of 47%. The broader Attainment 8 figure of 44.3 sits a little below the national mark of 46.9, suggesting solid performance in the core that is not always matched across the full basket of subjects. Popular GCSE choices include Urdu, Religious Studies, Geography and the two English qualifications, while sixth-formers gravitate towards the sciences, Mathematics and Psychology. GCSE, A-level and BTEC routes are all available.
