Teaching & academics
The school's published Attainment 8 score of 43.8 sits a little below the national average of 46.9. The reported figure of 0% of pupils achieving grade 5 or above in English and Maths is unusual and likely reflects how results are recorded for independent schools rather than genuine outcomes, so parents would do well to ask the school directly for its full GCSE results before drawing conclusions.
The last word
A medium-sized independent option in Wakefield worth a closer look, with one caveat: ask the school to clarify its headline GCSE figures in person.
