Teaching & academics

The headline measures here are notably below the national picture. The average Attainment 8 score of 30.5 falls short of the national average of 46.9, and the proportion of pupils achieving grade 5 or above in English and Maths is recorded as 0%, against a national average of 47%. Parents would be wise to discuss these results directly with the school and ask how cohorts are supported and how the figures should be read in context.

The last word

A medium-sized independent in West Yorkshire with 11+ entry, though its published attainment data sits firmly below national averages and merits frank questions at any open day.
