GCSE results school comparison for England
Compare GCSE outcomes, Attainment 8 and Progress 8 together instead of checking each school manually.
Overview
If you are comparing GCSE results between schools, MySchoolHub gives you the main performance measures in one place. That includes Attainment 8, Progress 8, English and maths outcomes, EBacc indicators and school profiles.
This makes it easier to move from a broad search to a realistic shortlist, especially when you care about both grades and local options.
What to check beyond headline GCSE grades
A simple comparison should include Attainment 8, Progress 8 and the share of pupils achieving strong English and maths passes. These metrics answer slightly different questions.
Ofsted ratings, trust information, recent inspection dates, absence patterns, exclusions and post-16 destination measures add extra context when two schools look similar on raw exam performance.
Fastest workflow for parents
Search by place name or postcode, shortlist a few schools, then use the comparison tool to review them side by side.
Map view also helps if you want to see stronger-performing options near where you live instead of reading list pages one by one.
Now apply it to your own list
Add a postcode and we rank the schools you could reach, weighting progress as heavily as you like.
