Progress 8

  • The Progress 8 score for PP students reflects their increasing performance which is moving rapidly towards the national average Progress 8 score.
  • The gap between PP and NPP[1] students has narrowed significantly by this measure as illustrated in the graph above.
  • This reflects the improved provision for students across all subjects and a curriculum that is meeting the needs of all students regardless of background.

Attainment 8

  • There has been a improvement in the overall Attainment 8 figure and this is reflected in improvements for both PP and NPP students. The improvement for PP students has been more significant that for those who are NPP.
  • As a result of increased progress, attainment has also risen within the PP cohort.
  • The gap between PP and NPP students has also narrowed in the 2016 results. This narrowing is a resulted of an improved performance of the PP cohort greater than the improvement in the NPP cohort.

Basics (A*-C in English and maths)

  • The performance of disadvantaged students has risen over the past 3 years. Therefore there has been a narrowing gap between PP & NPP in comparison with these students nationally.
  • This again reflects the increased focus on PP students and a positive impact from bespoke approaches to supporting their progress.
  • The attainment of NPP students is now in line with the same national cohort.
  • In 2015 PP Holly Lodge PP students performed in line with the national PP cohort. There is currently no data for this in 2016.
