Results

GCSE results, summer 2025

14 pupils sat their GCSEs. Here is how they did against every state secondary in England.

The government hasn't published this school's headline results. That usually means the year group was too small to publish without identifying children.

Year 6 results (SATs), summer 2025

7 children took the tests. Here is how they did against every state primary in England. With a year group this small, a couple of children can move the percentages a long way.

There are no progress figures for 2025. That year group missed their Year 2 tests during Covid, so there was no starting point to measure from. Progress figures come back with the December 2026 results. Tests were cancelled altogether in 2020 and 2021.

† These results are for Yeoman Park School, the school this one replaced in October 2017. Same building and the same children. It got a new registration number, usually because it joined an academy trust.

Money

From the academy accounts return, year to August 2025. The per-pupil figures are compared with other special schools in England that report their accounts the same way.

Spend per pupil£31,035England £30,720. Total £3.5m
Income per pupil£31,754England £33,526. Total £3.6m
Spent on teachers per pupil£9,553England £11,966

Reserves are the money left over at the end of the year, kept back for emergencies and big projects. Being in the red year after year is a warning sign. Very large reserves can mean money sitting in the bank instead of being spent on today's pupils. Academy figures are rounded to the nearest £1,000 and include a share of any money the trust holds centrally.

Crime figures come from police.uk. The police record each crime at the nearest of a fixed set of map points rather than the exact spot, so “within 500 m” is only rough. House prices are from HM Land Registry sales nearby over the last two years.
