Academic Results
At Newhouse Academy, we work tirelessly to ensure our students achieve grades that reflect their true potential. Since joining Hollingworth Learning Trust, the academy has undergone a rapid turnaround, with key performance data from 2019 to 2025 demonstrating a clear upward trajectory in both academic ambition and student outcomes.
Rising Proficiency in English and Maths
We have seen a dramatic increase in students achieving ‘Standard’ and ‘Strong’ passes in these core subjects.
Grade 5+ (Strong Pass): Increased from 18% to 29.1%
Grade 4+ (Standard Pass): Increased from 41% to 52.2%
An Ambitious, Broad Curriculum
We have overhauled our curriculum to ensure it is both rigorous and diverse. We have significantly increased the number of students excelling in Humanities and Languages.
EBacc Entry Rates: Increased from just 3% in 2019 to 31% in 2025
EBacc Average Point Score: Improved from 2.75 to 3.25
Success Beyond Year 11
We have a proven track record of ensuring our leavers transition successfully into the next stage of their lives, consistently preventing students from falling into the ‘NEET’ category (Not in Education, Employment, or Training).
97.3% Success Rate: Our latest figures show the vast majority of our students successfully progress into further education, professional training, or employment.
Looking Ahead
We are incredibly proud of everything our 2025 cohort has achieved. Their success sets a high standard, and we look forward to seeing our current Year 11 students build on this momentum and reach even greater heights this year.
