The government’s preliminary performance figures for secondary schools were released at the beginning of the year.
Using this data, we’ve ranked the top secondary schools across the Harrogate district for the 2023/24 school year - based on their latest Progress 8 scores.
This is a unique figure based on GCSE results and other student achievements, which demonstrates how well a secondary school’s pupils developed their skills compared to peers starting from similar primary schools nationwide.
We’ve selected the secondary schools that have a score above 0 and are considered to be ‘average’ or above.
