About Feversham Girls' Secondary Academy

Feversham Girls’ Secondary Academy in Bradford holds an Ofsted Outstanding rating from its most recent inspection in 2022, with every graded category — quality of education, behaviour and attitudes, personal development, leadership and management, and sixth-form provision — all judged Outstanding. The school’s most telling exam metric is its Progress 8 score of 0.68, which places it well above average nationally. That score means pupils here achieve nearly three-quarters of a grade more per subject across eight GCSEs than students with similar starting points nationally. In Bradford, where the local authority average Progress 8 is -0.19, Feversham’s result is particularly striking: it ranks second out of 34 secondary schools in the area, and in the top 5% of schools across Yorkshire and the Humber. Nationally, it sits in the top 10% of all schools. The school also achieves a strong Attainment 8 score of 52.4, and 68.3% of pupils secure a grade 4 or above in both English and maths.
