What the data says
Of the 15 pupils who finished Year 11 at Sunnydown School in 2023, 7% moved to a sixth form college, 67% to a further education college and none started an apprenticeship.
Almost nobody goes straight into an apprenticeship or a job: none took an apprenticeship and none went into work, against 3% and 3% across England.
Sunnydown School is a special school: its GCSE figures (Attainment 8 of 21.8, 14% with grade 5 or above in English and maths) are published by DfE for completeness and are not comparable with mainstream schools.
