The Avon Valley School is delighted to celebrate the excellent examination results achieved by the Class of 2024-2025.
A strong 64.2% of students achieved grade 4+ in both English and maths, placing the school in line with the national figure. At grade 5+, 40.3% of students were successful, again close to the national average.
Performance in English and maths was particularly encouraging.
Notably, outcomes for disadvantaged students exceeded national data at both grade 4+ and grade 5+ in both English and maths.
The school’s Attainment 8 score was 44.3, close to the national figure of 45.9. For disadvantaged students, the Attainment 8 score was five points above the national average, reflecting the school’s commitment to equity and high expectations for all learners.
Analysis of the results shows strong performance across a wide range of subjects, including the Arts, Modern Foreign Languages, Social Studies, Technology, ICT, and the core curriculum. These outcomes highlight the school’s ability to unlock the potential of every student, helping them reach their personal goals and preparing them for the next stage of their education or career.
A particular highlight this year was the achievement of the school’s highest‑performing student, who secured an exceptional set of grades: seven grade 9s, two grade 8s, and one Level 2 Distinction*—a profile comparable with the very best schools nationally.
These results reaffirm that achievement remains at the heart of The Avon Valley School’s success and reflect the dedication of students, staff, and the wider school community.

Ofsted inspects schools to make sure children receive a high-quality education and that public money is used properly. Their inspections help schools to keep improving and give parents clear, independent information about how a school is performing. From November 2025, Ofsted will introduce a new report card system to replace the old single overall grade (Outstanding, Good, Requires Improvement, Inadequate).
Instead, schools will receive a report card showing how they perform in several key areas, using a five-point scale from “Urgent Improvement Needed” to “Exceptional.”
Inspectors will look at areas such as:
Each school’s report card will include a short summary explaining the findings, highlighting both strengths and areas for development.
You can download Ofsted reports for The Avon Valley School and Performing Arts College from this page once they are published.
