What the data says
Vale School has no sixth form. Of the 8 pupils who finished Year 11 there in 2023, 25% moved to a sixth form college, 50% to a further education college and none started an apprenticeship.
Almost every leaver found a sustained destination: only 0% were not in education, work or training six months on, against 6% nationally.
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.
Vale School is a special school: its GCSE figures (Attainment 8 of 0.4, 0% with grade 5 or above in English and maths) are published by DfE for completeness and are not comparable with mainstream schools.
