Stanborough celebrated another successful year of GCSE results in 2016.
Our provisional results put us above national average with 75% of students achieving five A*-C grades and 67% of students achieving five A*-C grades including maths and English. Students made excellent progress across all subjects achieving, on average, 10 qualifications each. We were also particularly pleased with the number of students making expected progress in maths (65%) of whom 71% achieved a C or above and English (81%) in which 71% achieved a C or above. We were particularly pleased with the 16 students who achieved an A* or A in at least 8 GCSEs. 22% of students achieved the English Baccalaureate in 2016. Our Progress 8 score was -0.01 and our Attainment 8 score was 51.7. All students continued onto Post 16 provision or employment.
We are proud of the achievements and progress of our students in another volatile year of exam results. In particular, our results in English, maths and science have seen improved outcomes over the past few years. This is down to the dedication of staff and students.
