Little Lever has generated strong and improving GCSE outcomes for students now since 2019.  This is indicated by the fact the school has achieved a positive Progress 8 score every year since 2019.  Progress 8 measures the difference between the attainment students are predicted to get at GCSE from their KS2 starting points (end of primary school) with the attainment they actually achieve at GCSE.  If it’s positive it means students performed better than expected and if its negative they performed less well than expected.  

Progress 8 is not recorded this year as students in Y11 were not able to sit their KS2 Standard Assessment Tests (SATs) due to the pandemic.  As a school we are incredibly proud of the resilience the ‘class of 2025’ has shown.  To achieve the highest attainment 8 score in the school’s history would indicate that their progress would have been outstanding and this is a testament to the hard work, determination and resilience they have shown over their 5 years at Little Lever.
