Parents, be they prospective or current, will be delighted to hear that we had our best ever SATs performance in 2004-05. This is best illustrated in a comparative table:
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| You will note that in 2005 we were considerably above the Leeds
average in all three subjects. In English and Science we were well
above the National average whilst Maths was 1% below. Well done
to all those students who are currently at the beginning of their
GCSE courses in Year 10. We are definitely on an upward trend.
The GCSE results were not as pleasing. 41% of our students gained
5 A* to C, which was identical to the previous year. There were,
however, some startlingly good performances from a number of students.

| The average points score for the 195 students was extremely pleasing.
At GCSE we are compared to similar schools and our points score
of 321 was well above such schools. There are two major reasons for that: 1. Our best students, some of whom are listed above did extraordinarily well 2. All our 195 students (except 2) completed their courses and most got 5 A*-G. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Our best results however were in the 6th form. In the 6th form
we can compare how well students performed against their starting
point (GCSE results); how much 'value' they added. Our students
added value across the range of academic and vocational qualifications
that we offer. The average grade for each exam entry at 'A' level
was above a grade C and we had 55 students who are continuing to
study at University.
Particular mention goes to the following students who gained
excellent grades:
We also had 25 students who gained Intermediate GNVQ qualifications
and who now have access to advanced qualifications. Some of these
students continue to study in our 6th form and others have gone
on to study at local F E Colleges. |
