~ Validated league tables from the Department for Education confirm above average student progress for Salford City Academy students ~ 

~ School secures its highest progress score in 2022 ~ 

Salford City Academy has reinforced its success at GCSE this summer with validated progress scores.

The scores come as part of the Department for Education’s validated GCSE league tables released today. This national data shows schools’ performance on the government’s Progress 8 measure, which calculates the average progress students make by GCSE, compared with other similar schools. A progress score that meets the national average is set at 0 each year, with anything higher reflecting value added to a student’s achievements during their time at school.

Pupils from Barton Moss Primary School and Salford City Academy were joined by special guests on 5^th December at the launch of a new 'Park and Stride' scheme. It's part of a series of improvements to make the walk to school safer and more enjoyable.

The changes have come about after Living Streets, the UK charity for everyday walking worked with pupils from Barton Moss Primary School to assess the local streets to see what improvements could be made to make it easier for them to walk to school.

We are delighted to announce that we, Salford City Academy, have achieved the School Games Gold Mark Award for the 2021/22 academic year.   The School Games Mark is a Government-led award scheme launched in 2012, facilitated by the Youth Sport Trust to reward and recognise school’s engagement (provision and uptake) in the School Games against a national benchmark and to celebrate keeping young people active, and we are delighted to have been recognised for our success.
