Please note that the numbers in the English Language, English Literature and Maths attainment is because of the national shift from GCSE grades to GCSE numbers. This is a scale of 1 – 9 with 9 being the best grade. Current information indicates that an old C grade will be between the 4 and 5 number. Please be aware that the new levels at GCSE have no correlation with the national curriculum levels at KS3.
