About LTE Group

LTE Group is a state secondary school in Manchester that serves students from age 14 right through to 99, making it an unusual option for families looking for a post-16 setting or adult education alongside traditional sixth-form study. The school does not publish a parentView recommend percentage in the available data, so it is difficult to gauge how current families rate their experience. However, the school is not oversubscribed based on the information provided, which may suggest that local demand is moderate. The headteacher is Rachel Curry, and the school has a mixed gender intake with no religious character. For parents researching options, the lack of a parent recommendation metric or oversubscription ratio means that other signals, such as academic outcomes and facilities, will need to carry more weight in the decision-making process.

In its most recent A-level results for the 2023/24 academic year, LTE Group recorded a points per entry score of 30.5, which equates to a grade C. This is based on a small cohort of just eight pupils, so the figures should be treated with caution as they represent a very narrow sample. The school does not publish a Progress 8 score or value-added measure for its sixth-form students, nor does it provide data on the proportion of AAB grades or the best three A-level grades. For context, the local authority average Progress 8 score for secondary schools in Manchester is 0.18, but this applies to Key Stage 4 rather than post-16 outcomes. Among the top-performing peers in the area, Eden Boys' Leadership Academy, Manchester, leads with a ranking score of 1.2, followed by Eden Girls' Leadership Academy, Manchester, at 1.02, and Levenshulme High School at 0.91. LTE Group does not appear in this peer ranking, which suggests its academic profile is not directly comparable to these higher-performing schools.

The school offers a broad range of facilities including a sixth-form centre, ICT suite, astro turf, library, science labs, gymnasium, sports hall, and even a chapel, which is unusual for a non-religious school. Sports provision includes athletics, martial arts, rounders, swimming, cross country, basketball, and netball, while extracurricular clubs cover newspaper, young enterprise, drama, debate, eco club, coding, science club, choir, orchestra, and model UN. The school also has nursery provision, which may appeal to families with younger children looking for a single-site option. For parents considering LTE Group, the key selling point is its flexible age range and adult-learning dimension, but the small sixth-form cohort and lack of published progress measures mean it is best suited to families who value a non-traditional, inclusive setting over strong academic league-table performance. The nearest outstanding-rated school is Co-op Academy Belle Vue, just one kilometre away, which may be a useful benchmark for comparison.
