We are delighted to announce that Gosforth Academy is featured in the Top 11 Secondary Schools in Tyne & Wear, based on the Government's updated preliminary performance tables. NewcastleWorld.com has reported the rankings and created a top 11 listing, which lists our school in third place.
The newly released GCSE performance data, drawn from the Progress 8 Score for the 2023/2024 academic year, reflects our students' outstanding academic performance and overall development. This score assesses student achievements and learning progress relative to peers from similar primary schools across the country. A score above zero is labeled "positive," and a score exceeding 0.2 is recognised as "above average." Gosforth Academy proudly reports a Progress 8 score of 0.64, categorised as ‘well above average.’ This Progress Score reflects our aim to foster academic success and personal growth for all of our students.
Our Principal, Preit Chahal, shared his pride and said, “We are thrilled to be recognised among the top state secondary schools in the region. Our unwavering focus on academic excellence, alongside our commitment to student wellbeing, creates an environment where every pupil can thrive.”
