Footnotes

  1. Progress 8 aims to capture the progress a pupil makes from the end of KS2 to the end of KS4. It compares pupils’ achievement – their Attainment 8 score – with the national average Attainment 8 score of all pupils who had a similar starting point (or ‘prior attainment’), calculated using assessment results from the end of primary school. Progress 8 is a relative measure, therefore the national average Progress 8 score for mainstream schools is very close to zero. It can be used to compare the progress of different pupil characteristics and geography breakdowns. See the links in the methodology section for more information on Progress 8 and Attainment 8.
  2. Progress 8 scores do not account for a range of other factors which could influence school attainment for disadvantaged White British pupils – such as the depth of deprivation in different areas, the wider demographics of the school or factors like special educational needs and disabilities. Progress 8 scores for small groups of pupils are also likely to fluctuate over time, so this data only presents a snapshot of performance.
  3. Pupils are defined as disadvantaged if they are known to have been eligible for free school meals at any point in the past six years (from year 6 to year 11), if they are recorded as having been looked after for at least one day or if they are recorded as having been adopted from care.
