Attainment and Progress
Key stage 4 (Year 11)
The school's performance in GCSE exams is measured in terms of the students' progress compared with their starting point in Year 7, this is known as Progress 8. The grading of English and maths GCSEs changed in 2017 and the reformed GCSEs are graded 1 (low) to 9 (high). Grade 4 or above in the new grading is a similar level of achievement to a grade C or above in the old grading.
In 2018/2019, Harrogate High School’s examination results were:-
| Progress 8 Score | -0.6 |
|---|---|
| Attainment Score | 38.5 |
| Percentage of students achieving a strong pass in English & Mathematics (GCSE) (grade 5 and above) |
35% |
| Percentage of students achieving a standard pass in English & Mathematics (GCSE) (grade 4 and above) |
56% |
| The percentage of pupils entering for the English Baccalaureate (EBacc). To enter the EBacc, pupils must take up to 8 GCSEs or equivalents, across the 5 subject ‘pillars’ of English language and English literature, maths, sciences, a language and history or geography | 8% |
| Pupil destinations - Percentage of students staying in education or employment after key stage 4 (destinations) | 94% |
