Schools below 30% GCSE target

This table lists the 638 secondary schools in England below the government's "floor target" of 30% of 15-year-old pupils getting at least five good GCSEs including English and maths, in last year's results.

Click the name of any authority to see all the schools in the area. (In 15 areas no schools fall below the threshold).

As well as GCSE results, the table shows each school's "contextual value added" score (CVA), a measure of the progress children have made: broadly, above 1000 is better than average and below 1000 is worse.
