GCSE Results
In 2016 the Government introduced a new GCSE accountability measure known as Progress 8 (P8). This is a score based on how well the students do in relation to what was expected of them in 8 of their subjects. (Expectations are based on prior attainment at the end of Year 6.) For example, if a student was expected to get 8 grade 6s at GCSE, but achieved 8 grade 7s, then they would receive a P8 score of +1 (1 grade better than expected on average). Likewise, if they achieved 8 grade 5s their score would be -1.
The 8 subjects that are used to calculate the P8 score are as follows:
- English and maths GCSEs
- 3 of the following GCSEs: Science, Spanish, French, History and Geography
- Any other 3 subjects

*Just under 20% of students didn’t take 8 subjects because they either joined the school late e.g. in Year 11 or because we didn’t feel it was in their best interest. Sadly, this meant their P8 scores were affected considerably. Students who completed all 8 subjects achieved a much higher P8 score.
