Adcote School is rated as the school with the highest value-added students in the central region of the UK in 2020

 

When parents are looking at the ranking list or the common school names of the promotion agent, there are still a large number of high-quality private schools in the UK, which are not well known. These high-quality schools may not participate in the ranking game, but it does not mean that the school’s performance is inferior. It should be noted that there are still a variety of academic evaluation standards in the UK, it just depends on how the school proves the academic standards. Progress 8 and Attainment 8 are the two latest standards that affect the ranking of schools. As a parent, if you are interested in sending your child to a British secondary school, you must pay attention to how to correctly use different criteria to choose a school.

What is Progress 8? As the name suggests, Progress 8 stands for progress, which is how much progress this school can bring to children. This standard is a score, the lowest is -1 and the highest is +1. To put it simply, progress means to see how well students progress in the GCS test five years after entering the middle school. Therefore, it compares the scores of the students who have just entered the middle school with the scores of the final GCSE.

E - stands for Engagement into the world

A - stands for Achiever achievements

In short, Adcote School has established the qualities required for lifelong success and happiness for students in holistic education.

Many parents with their children attending schools reported that they chose such smaller schools for their daughters for a very reasonable reason. When the number of students in the school is small, teachers and classmates will have more time for everyone, and there will be more communication. The relationship is as close as a big family, which is very helpful for teaching and caring for the daughter. Small-scale schools shorten the distance between everyone and make it easier to make friends. The resources of the school become more even, that is, everyone has equal opportunities and will not be diluted, which means that children can easily follow their own interests in school and can try many aspects. Self-confidence was quickly built up in the development and activities of the company. Unlike in a large school with a large number of people, learning resources are shared by a large number of students, and it takes competition to get an opportunity, or even no opportunity.

In addition to the academic achievements of Adcote School For Girls, students have also achieved outstanding results in sports, track and field, gymnastics, fencing, horse riding and performing arts. The school is the champion of gymnastics and track and field in the Midwest of England, and the school’s equestrian team. His outstanding performance was summoned by the Queen of England.
