Exam Results 2018
At Mildenhall College Academy we’re proud of the success of our students. We believe that we create a climate in which all students can achieve and we provide the motivation for continuing the drive for better and higher standards in order to prepare them well for the next stage in their lives. When our Sixth Form students leave us, we know they’ll be well equipped for achieving yet more success.
Key Stage 4
The number of pupils achieving higher grades continues to improve in the context of new national measures and examinations that are more difficult. 2018 continued to see a rise in the number of higher grades awarded, including five grade 9’s in Mathematics.
In English, 69% of pupils achieved a grade 4 – 9 (equivalent C grade or above) and in Mathematics 61% achieved a grade 4 -9. Triple Science results continued rising to above national average in all 3 sciences. More students are entered for Triple Science at Mildenhall College Academy than the national average.
15% of our students achieved the EBacc suite of qualifications, which includes English, mathematics, two sciences, a modern foreign language and a humanities’ subject.
The new Attainment 8 measure shows that standards across a range of key subjects are rising too and are now in line with national averages. The new Progress 8 measure of 0.16, places the academy in the top range of schools achieving the national average. We are particularly proud of the progress that our pupils made in Science, Maths, DT (Food), History, Dance and IT, which were all significantly above the national average.
We are very proud that our students successfully secure places in education, employment or training when they leave us.
