What the data says

The Department for Education has not published where Pollyteach Limited’s Year 11 leavers went next, so this page relies on the school’s results and subjects.

Pollyteach Limited is a special school: its GCSE figures (Attainment 8 of 7.2, 4% with grade 5 or above in English and maths) are published by DfE for completeness and are not comparable with mainstream schools.

Where pupils went after Year 11

Destinations of the 2023 Year 11 leavers, measured the following year: the share in a sustained place for at least two terms. Compared with all state-funded schools in Nottinghamshire and England.

The Department for Education has not published destination figures for this school (new school, small cohort or not a state-funded school).
