The Long Eaton Schools validated Key Stage 4 performance for the years 2019, 2022, 2023 and 2024 can be seen in the table that follows below. (Parents are reminded that performance tables were not published for any school in 2020 and 2021).
To have achieved the grades they have against the back drop of lock downs, home schooling and a global pandemic is a remarkable achievement, and one for which they should feel very proud.
These outcomes mean that the vast majority of our students can progress on to their first choice of post 16 study, which for many will be our own sixth form. Others will progress on to local colleges in Derby, Nottingham and Loughborough to undertake a variety of courses.
