School figures

Coloured bars compare this school with the average for other schools in NE65. Where we have them, council (Northumberland) and England figures appear under FSM, SEN and attendance. FSM, SEN and EAL are context, not quality scores. For attendance, higher is usually better.

Pupils on roll: 567
Free school meals: 33.8%
SEN: 19.3%
EAL: 2.5%
Attendance: 89.6% Autumn and spring 2024/25

Each metric uses its own colour so you can tell the rows apart. The lighter bar is the NE65 average; the darker bar is this school.

Compared with England

Persistent absence is 2024/25. Key Stage 2 is 2024/25: expected standard combined, greater depth, then reading, writing and maths. Headline GCSE measures are 2024/25. Progress 8 is from 2023/24, the latest year published for this school. There is no Progress 8 for 2024/25 or 2025/26, because those pupils did not sit Key Stage 2 tests during the pandemic. England is the state-funded average from the same tables. Progress 8 of 0 is typical.
