What the data says

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

Languages are a small part of the curriculum here: entries in Spanish add up to 13% of the year group, and 0% of pupils entered the full EBacc set of subjects (England 41%).

Burlington House School is a special school: its GCSE figures (Attainment 8 of 20.2, 0% 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
