Results 2023
We are immensely proud of all of our students for the results they have achieved in their examinations, marking the end of key stage 4. The class of 2023 has had to navigate a significant amount of disruption to their education in their journey through secondary education. This makes their individual achievements all the more remarkable.
Their grades reflect the tenacity, perseverance and resilience they have shown over the past five years. As the exam boards seek to return to pre-pandemic standards, students have had to work harder than ever to catch up on lost learning. Every grade that each student has represents an individual story of success.
In this context, it is always inspiring to share stories of students whose attainment is truly exceptional. We congratulate Aimee Bullock, Kevin Mathew, Louisa Hope, Olivia Wheeler, Empress Essuman, Lana Clancy, Isaac Metcalf, Erin Mitchell and Charlotte Hichens, who all attained an average grade 7 or above across their subjects. However, we also always like to celebrate students who have made exceptional progress from their starting point. Aimee and Poppy Hillier Murr, Juliette Searle, Harrison Batley and Harvey Dougan all exceeded expectations across their range of subjects.
I am incredible grateful to the teachers and associate staff who have worked tirelessly to support students in their work towards these exams. Their dedication and willingness to go above and beyond really does allow our students to flourish.
We are very proud of every member of the class of 2023. They should feel proud of themselves too. Their grades are a testament to the power of sheer hard work and dedication. We look forward to hearing about their continued successes over the coming years.

Exam Results Overview
School accountability measures changed significantly in 2016, so that schools are now required to publish the following information: ‘Progress 8’, ‘Attainment 8’, ‘Basics’ and ‘E-Bacc’, all of which can be seen in the table of examination results below.
These measures are explained below the table. We have included the % of students who achieved five or more 9-1 or A*-C including English and maths in order to allow for historical comparison.

1. Progress 8 score. This aims to capture the progress a pupil makes from the end of primary school to the end of secondary school. It is a type of value added measure, which means that pupils’ results are compared to the actual achievements of other pupils with the same prior attainment.
2. Attainment 8 score. This measures the achievement of a pupil across 8 qualifications including maths (double weighted) and English (double weighted), 3 further qualifications that count in the English Baccalaureate (EBacc) measure and 3 further qualifications that can be GCSE qualifications (including EBacc subjects) or any other non-GCSE qualifications on the DfE approved list.
3. Basics 4+. This is the % of students who achieve a grade 4 (or before 2017, C) or above in both maths and English (either literature or language).
4. Basics 5+. This is the % of students who achieve a grade 5 or above in both maths and English (either literature or language).
5. EBacc APS. The EBacc average points score calculates a pupil's average point scores across the 5 pillars of the English Baccalaureate (detailed above).
