Examinations

The DfE requires that every school includes on its website certain details of its ‘most recent key stage 4 results as published by the Secretary of State’. There are four measures which must be reported. Heathside's 2016 published values for these measures are given below:

% of students gaining 5 or more A*-C GCSE (including English and Maths): 78%

% Pupils achieving a grade C or better in English and maths GCSEs : 81%

% of students making expected progress in English: 91%

% of students making expected progress in Maths: 83%

Progress 8: +0.27 (this score is above National Average, top 25% of Schools in England)

Attainment 8: 57.8 points
