RESULTS 2015

Year 11 (GCSE)

Students at de Ferrers once again celebrated record Y11 results - 66% achieved 5 A*-C grades including English & Maths.

19 students achieved 10 or more A/A* grades with Callum Bullock becoming the first student at The de Ferrers Academy to receive 13 A* grades.

Results at The de Ferrers Academy continue to increase at a much faster rate than the national average for England (13.2% above for % of stduents achieving % A*-C grades including English & Maths), against a backdrop of massive curriculum and policy change.

Another really positive figure is the performance of our Pupil Premium students. CtG is a term used for our Pupil Premium students to 'Close The Gap' on the National Average for 'All' students (PP and non PP)

As you can see from our results in 2015 for the main headline measure of % of students achieving 5 or more A* - C grades including English & Maths, we have not only 'Closed The Gap' we have shut the door completely, with The de Ferrers Academy PP cohort outperforming the National average for allstudents.
