The Department for Education have confirmed that the School's Progress 8 figure for this year's GCSE examinations is 0.89.  On the basis of previous years this puts St. Mark's in the top 1% of schools once again.  Progress 8 is the most significant statistical measure used by Ofsted in their inspections.  This year's outcome reflects the outstanding commitment of staff right across the curriculum at St. Mark's and the hard work of all our students.
