Teaching & academics
Hope View offers GCSE qualifications, and its published results sit well below national benchmarks: an Attainment 8 score of 8.8 against a national average of 46.9, with 6% of pupils reaching grade 5 or above in English and Maths compared with 47% nationally. Figures this far from the norm often reflect a school working with particular pupil needs rather than a straightforward academic comparison, and families are encouraged to discuss them directly with the school. Mr Paul Johnson leads as headteacher.
