About The Telford Park School

The Telford Park School’s headline Progress 8 score of -0.88 places it well below the local authority average of -0.26 for secondary schools in Telford and Wrekin, a gap that is stark even within a borough where the typical score is already negative. This ranks the school 9th out of 10 schools in the LA, putting it in the bottom 10% locally and the bottom 5% nationally. The school’s Progress 8 banding is officially rated as ‘well below average’, and every subject strand — from English (-0.75) to maths (-1.09) and the EBacc subjects (-0.86) — falls significantly short of the national baseline. For context, the top-performing school in the LA, Newport Girls’ High School Academy, posts a score of +0.49, making the contrast with Telford Park’s -0.88 particularly pronounced. This is a school whose headline metrics signal serious academic challenges that parents will want to investigate further.
