New school performance figures - what you need to know

With Progress 8 scores unavailable, Attainment 8 is now the primary metric for comparing schools based on GCSE performance.

Attainment 8 scores reflect pupil performance across eight subjects, including English, maths, EBacc subjects, and other qualifications, without considering prior learning. Individual subject grades are combined for a maximum score of 90, and a school's Attainment 8 score is the average of all pupils.

Dividing a school’s Attainment 8 score by ten reveals its average GCSE grade, providing valuable insight into academic achievement.
