Ossett Academy and Sixth Form College (formerly Ossett School) is the only secondary school and a 6th Form college in Ossett, a town in the county of West Yorkshire, England.

The school opened in 1902 as Ossett Grammar School.[1] In 1969 the school converted to a comprehensive school and became known simply as Ossett School. Spring 2006 saw Ossett School gain dual Specialist School status and it became known as a Specialist Technology and Sports College. The school converted to an Academy School in 2011 and was renamed Ossett Academy and Sixth Form College. The school is part of the Accord Multi Academy Trust.

Ossett Academy and Sixth Form College is a much larger than average size secondary school with a large sixth form and is heavily oversubscribed. The proportion of students supported through the pupil premium is below the national average. A well-below average proportion of students are from minority ethnic groups and the proportion of disabled students and those who have special educational needs supported at school action is above average.[2]

Since 2012 the secondary school and sixth form have consistently ranked as one of the top 3 schools/colleges for academic performance in the Wakefield area and in the top 15% nationally.[3] As of 2017 the Secondary School was ranked as the 2nd best in Wakefield in terms of Attainment 8 Score and Grade 4 & 5 or above in English and maths GCSEs.[4]

Ofsted Inspections

The latest section 5 OFSTED inspection report of Ossett Academy, released in 2013, stated that the school was 'good' overall (Grade 2), with 'outstanding' features.[5]

In 2012 the Academy received its first ever section 5 OFSTED inspection report and was deemed 'satisfactory' overall (Grade 3), with 'good' features [6]

Secondary School Performance

Progress 8 Score

This score shows how much progress pupils at the school made between the end of key stage 2 and the end of key stage 4, compared to pupils across England who got similar results at the end of key stage 2. This is based on results in up to 8 qualifications, which include English, maths, 3 English Baccalaureate qualifications including sciences, computer science, history, geography and languages, and 3 other additional approved qualifications.[7]

A score above zero means pupils made more progress, on average, than pupils across England who got similar results at the end of key stage 2.

A score below zero means pupils made less progress, on average, than pupils across England who got similar results at the end of key stage 2.

A negative progress score does not mean pupils made no progress, or the school has failed, rather it means pupils in the school made less progress than other pupils across England with similar results at the end of key stage 2.
