About Bath College

Bath College’s most recent Ofsted inspection judged the school as Good overall, a rating it has held across both its recent inspections. For a post-16 institution, the most telling academic metric is its A-level performance: students achieved an average of 31.88 points per best three A-levels, equivalent to a grade of C+. The average points per entry across all qualifications was 34.67, also translating to a C+ grade. The school’s value-added score sits at -0.18, which is within the ‘Average’ band, meaning students’ progress from their starting points is broadly in line with expectations nationally. At KS4, the picture is more mixed: the Attainment 8 score is 4.6, and only 15.9% of pupils achieved a grade 5 or above in English and maths. The EBacc average point score is just 0.25, and no pupils entered the EBacc combination of subjects.
