What the data says
Of the 264 pupils who finished Year 11 at Wolfreton School and Sixth Form College in 2023, 16% stayed on in Wolfreton School and Sixth Form College’s own sixth form (East Riding of Yorkshire average 24%), 28% went to a further education college and 11% started an apprenticeship.
Among the 101 students who left the sixth form in 2023, 65% went to university (East Riding of Yorkshire 37%, England 37%), and 15% of level 3 students progressed to one of the most selective universities, against 19% nationally.
Apprenticeships are a real route from here: 11% of leavers started one, roughly three times the England figure of 3%.
