Progress & Results

Every school is required to report on the same set of data each year. This includes how we have used funding for specific groups of students and how our students have fared in different areas of the curriculum.

These reports do not take into account that we are a special school and that our students have significant learning difficulties. As a result of our admissions criteria, none of our students achieve the standards expected of their peers in a mainstream school and progress is such a personal thing in a special school that it would not be meaningful for us to provide a figure which showed average progress between Key Stages.

We do not report a Progress 8 or Attainment 8 score as our learners will have been disapplied from SATs, which are used as a baseline. None of our students will enter or achieve the English Baccalaureate and none are likely to achieve a GCSE grade 5 or above in English or Mathematics. Most of our students do gain qualifications in accredited courses that we have selected to meet their needs and abilities. Please look at the different Pathways here to learn more about qualifications our students work towards.

We have developed our own assessment systems for each of our Pathways and these allow us to track individual progress in a way that ensures each pupil achieves the best possible outcomes for them. We assess progress against EHCP outcomes as well as against our curriculum targets.

We are proud to say that almost all of our students make good or better individual progress from their starting points.
