15 best Lancashire schools & colleges based on A-Level performance

The Department for Education (DfE) has published its final Progress 8 scores for colleges and secondary schools across Lancashire so we’ve collated the very best performing for you all.

We’ve scoured all the sixth forms and colleges across the county, and analysed their progress score for A levels.

These figures tell you how much progress students who studied A levels at a school or college made between the end of key stage 4 and the end of their A level studies, compared to similar students across England.

These scores are also known as 'value added' scores.

Take a look at the 15 Lancashire schools and colleges with the best A level progress scores below...
