Birmingham Metropolitan College

About Birmingham Metropolitan College

Birmingham Metropolitan College is a 16-99 state secondary in Birmingham, and its headline metrics sit well below the local authority average for its school type. The LA average Progress 8 score is 0.09, but this college does not publish a Progress 8 figure because it serves post-16 students only. Instead, the key measure is its A-level value added score of -0.67, which falls into the 'well below average' progress banding. That means students here typically leave with lower A-level grades than their prior attainment would predict, a stark contrast to the positive progress seen across Birmingham's secondary schools overall. The college's average points per entry is 22.07, equivalent to a D+ grade, and the best three A-levels average just 21.93 points, also a D+. With only 1.2 per cent of entries achieving AAB or higher, this is not a school that pushes students towards the most competitive university courses. For parents comparing outcomes, the gap between this college and the LA's top performers — such as Eden Boys' School with a ranking score of 1.58 — is considerable.
