# Academic Results

**Everyone Excels Everyday**

As an academy, we work hard to ensure that our pupils achieve grades that reflect their potential. In 2026 our pupils excelled, achieving outstanding results across a breadth of subjects.

We are exceptionally proud of our pupils for placing themselves as the **number one school in Rochdale** over the past 3 years for the following:

- Percentage of pupils with a Grade 4 or higher in both Maths and English.
- Percentage of pupils with a Grade 5 or higher in both Maths and English.
- Percentage of pupils who achieved 5 or more qualifications at Grade 4 or higher (including Maths and English).
- Percentage of pupils who achieve 2 GCSEs at Grade 4 or higher in Science.
- Average grade achieved across all subjects.

**As well as locally our pupils have achieved significantly above the national average in all key areas:**
