About Long Road Sixth Form College

Long Road Sixth Form College is a large state sixth form in Cambridge, and its most recent Ofsted inspection judged it Good overall, with Outstanding features in both Behaviour and Attitudes and Personal Development. That places it among a minority of schools in Cambridgeshire — only eight out of 39 secondary schools in the local authority hold an Outstanding rating overall, though Long Road’s partial Outstanding grades suggest strong day-to-day culture and student support. The most telling academic metric for a 16-19 institution is its Progress 8 score, which measures how much students improve between GCSE and A-level compared with peers nationally. Long Road’s Progress 8 score is not listed in the available data, but the local authority average for all schools is 0.17, meaning students in Cambridgeshire typically make slightly more progress than the national average. Given the college’s Good rating and its Outstanding behaviour and personal development grades, it is reasonable to expect that students here are well supported to achieve solid outcomes, even if the exact progress figure is not published.
