The revised results for the latest cohort of GCSE students (2025) follows on from the provisional results published in October which now include adjusted scores following re-marks and appeals.
A number of the county’s secondary schools and the local authority as a whole have seen their average Attainment 8 scores increase since the provisional results.
Blackpool’s local authority saw pupils achieve an average GCSE Attainment 8 score of 37, which is below the England (all schools) average score of 43.8.
Attainment 8 looks at how pupils have performed in up to eight Government stipulated GCSE subjects with each grade being given a value between one to nine- maths and English are given double weighting to reflect the significance of these core subjects.
A school’s Attainment 8 score is the average total achieved by pupils in that year’s GCSE cohort of students.
Progress 8 scores are normally viewed as the most important attainment benchmark on which a secondary school’s performance is judged as it looks at how much progress teachers have made with pupils since joining them in Year 7, rather than just raw outcomes.
Progress 8 scores could not be calculated for this year’s 2025 cohort of students as, due to Covid, this group of pupils did not sit their Year 6 tests.
