This places us joint 11 th out of all schools in Northamptonshire.
The Government are also introducing new measures to assess how much progress all students make, a score known as Progress 8. A score of 0 would mean students had come in at Key stage 2 and made the average progress expected.
This means that students at Prince William are obtaining results at the national average. This progress score puts us in the top 15 schools in Northamptonshire for progress.
