GCSE RESULTS
# In 2020 the Department for Education has opted not to publish performance tables for schools due to the COVID pandemic. We are able to compare our results with a large number of other schools via a data collaboration scheme, so we can give parents estimates, based on 2019 national data, which we hope will be useful.
